Rooftops in the Summer

A while back a co-worker took a new job in another town.  Although I'm sad to see her leave our building I am thrilled that she got this exciting opportunity.  A few of us decided to go out and celebrate with a dinner and when they suggested I pick a place in Cambridge it was an easy choice.  Summer in Cambridge on a beautiful evening means one thing- Daedalus in Harvard Square.

I have raved about this place quite often on this blog but once again Daedalus proved to be an excellent choice for a summer night.  Being a Wednesday I thought we might have luck on our side and get a coveted roof deck table.  We ended up having to wait about 45 minutes but it was totally worth it.  Everyone loved the restaurant and agreed that the roof deck was the way to go!  We had fun reminiscing about the previous school year and talking about upcoming trips.  The food was delicious, as always, and the service impeccable.  Without us asking, the waitress split our bill for us which is always a huge help.

I've had a lot of fun memories on the roof deck, most especially the memory of finding the place to begin with.  My roommate and I had hurried out of our apartment one Sunday summer morning to avoid the "roommate drama" only to wind up walking into Daedalus for brunch.  To say we were a bit dressed down was an understatement, I'm pretty sure I had sweatpants on.  When they asked us if we wanted to sit on the roof we both looked at each other and said "of course."  We couldn't believe we had stumbled onto such an awesome place.  It's been a personal favorite ever since!
