36 Hours - Boston

With the completion of the $15 billion Big Dig, downtown now stretches unimpeded to the harbor, making Boston feel like a whole new city. History abounds, of course — Faneuil Hall still stands, Paul Revere is still buried at the Granary Burying Ground — but it is now joined by a high-tech exuberance, modern parks and a reclaimed harbor. Revere would not recognize it. Friday 4:30 p.m. 1) EVERYTHING OLD IS NEW In a city this historic, it’s not every day that a new neighborhood is built from scratch. 8 p.m. 2) TASTE OF DAKAR There’s more to Boston than baked beans and oysters. 10 p.m. 3) HEAR THE BUZZ There are plenty of places to catch a show but not to hear live music with no cover.

36 Hours - Cambridge, Mass.

DOWN SOUTH Cambridge may not be the first place you think of to indulge in boiled peanuts, shrimp and grits or barbecued beef tongue, but Hungry Mother (233 Cardinal Medeiros Avenue; 617-499-0090; hungrymothercambridge.com) has some of the Northeast’s best Southern food. The chef, Barry Maiden, is a Virginia native, and his restaurant honors his home state at every turn — from the name, which is taken from a Virginia state park, to the Cardinal motif on the menus and the now-familiar grandma-chic aesthetic. Opened in 2008, Hungry Mother was financed, in part, by small donations (donors’ names grace a wall beside the bar), and there’s something in its easy welcome that feels unpretentious and sincere. 8 p.m.9. Since the 1950s, Club Passim (47 Palmer Street; 617-492-5300; clubpassim.org), a dark basement space on an alley off Harvard Square, has drawn musical greats.
