Bertucci's | Cambridge

It's another special edition of the Pizza Blog. We were joined by Miro's dear college friends. Since they have picked up delightful spouses (who are willing to partake in our hi-jinx, yay!) and commenced the spawning process, for this edition, it was off to Bertucci's, where high chairs are in abundant supply. See if you an tell which parents wrote their reviews with the crayons they provided the kids.
