The First Patio Night

After this crazy winter I think any temps higher than 40 qualify as a patio night.  The week after my Huskies won their 10th National Championship we felt like celebrating.  This also coincided with a rise in temps, I think it might have been in the 60s during the day.  As a result, everyone was out in the Square.  We tried four or five places before we were able to get a reservation at Legal's in the Charles Hotel.

After dinner, we started walking home, but realized that the patios had opened.  We couldn't resist enjoying the first patio night (even if I was still wearing my winter coat).  We were lucky to get a table at the Red House.  In my opinion, the Red House has the best patio in all of Harvard Square.  It has beautiful white lights everywhere and a real beachy feel.  We savored being able to be outside for any length of time, let alone, being able to enjoy a cocktail outside.  It was a perfect way to ring in April and say goodbye to this horrible winter we experienced!
