...delicious when spread over pita bread. We also tried the grape leaves, which our server raved were the best in the area. Although neither of us usually enjoys grape leaves, the ones at Zuzu were soft and delicate, wrapping a delicious mixture of rice and ground vegetables.

Though the exact origins of the chair remain unknown, it has achieved legendary status due to its shaky triangular framework that makes each presidential sitting—at installation ceremonies and at Commencement—a balancing...
