Kendall Square’s Study has added a smart mid-day lunch service for hungry food-lovers in the Cambridge area. From 11:00am-2:30pm, diners can dig into an a la carte menu of sumptuous plates, like braised mutton with apple and parsnip, or duck confit with duck heart and sweet potato. The well-learned beverage list spans all categories from coffee and tea to cider and beer to wines and sherries and the dessert cart will be making its rounds. Call 617.374.0700 to make a reservation or pop in for an afternoon meal.
