I like Punjabi Dhaba (Cambridge) and Masala (Somerville). I live by Arlington for 3 days a week and I have about 20 Indian restaurants within 20 mins…been to 6 of them so far. I live by the Cape on the weekends and I think Golden Swan is solid but not great, I think the two places that I listed are better. I think Ayur Shri in Dartmouth is decent, the takeout time there is ridiculously long though.

My last time around I did not choose the real ID simply because I have a passport, was eligible to renew my license online, and it only took 8 minutes online to renew & pay for my driver's license. Next time I am required to take a new photo then I will bring in all the extra paperwork to make it a Real ID.

It’s really easy, you fill out an application for a real ID online then head to RMV (I went to AAA) with your documents up to year before your license expires and they will send you a real ID. There are more documents required than if you want to renew and get a regular license but it’s the same RMV appointment type and the same cost. Downside is you need to renew in person if you want a real ID.
