I have been by
Cuchi Cuchi (95 Main Street, Cambridge) several times and have heard good things about it. They open at 530 pm so we had to stand outside a few minutes. Like the name, this place, on first glance, might be a little too cute. Girls behind the hostess desk and bar are in glittery outfits and if that's not your thing, try not to let that put you off. Cocktails, food and service are all quite good. A quick look down the extensive cocktail list didn't seem to have one drink with bourbon. The bartender offered a sazerac manhattan which I gladly accepted. And it came with this lovely twist, stirred at my request.
I don't remember what my friend got. Pink, yes; but the base was gin not vodka and she was pleased.
We split the fried oysters which came with a lacy cracker and some red/orange fish eggs on top of some sour cream. The bread crumbs on the oysters were a bit mushy and not crisp. The chicken tangine over couscous was everything it should have been. We sat in the bar which filled up quickly. The dining room, empty when I took the photo, was also packed when we left.
