seeking line-drawing artist

[ceelove.livejournal.com]

I'd like to commission someone to create a piece of fan art for me, to be used on a card to Joss Whedon. Are you an artist who is familiar with Whedon's work and can render such a thing, in fairly short order? Do you know someone who is? Is there a nearby school of design where I could advertise for someone?

Darulkabab (where the KFC used to be at Massachusetts Avenue and Walden in Cambridge)

In general, I am not much for writing restaurant reviews, but this place, open for the last few weeks, merits at least a mention. We went Wednesday night, we found the food well-prepared and staff super-friendly, and the prices very reasonable. They advertise Bangledeshi, Indian and Pakistani quisine, with some other more local favortes like pizza, burgers, and wraps. I got a gyro and a poori (poori's have a special place in my heart and I was not disappointed) ant the person I was with got lamb kebabs and a vegetable samosa. We both enjoyed what we ordered.

The interior was not fancy, but neat, pleasant, and well-kept.

Warning: they do not yet have everything on their menu (which at the moment has over 120 items) and are trying to figure out what to keep. I very much wanted to order the virgin pina colada, but I was the first one to order it in the two weeks they had been open, so rather than make it and throw it away each night, they just stopped offering it (if you went in and requested the pina colada, I would be most appreciative:)

We will definitely be going there again. If you have anything to add, please comment.

I know there have been discussions about the Faces nightclub on Route 2 in the past.
