Scoozi was not on my radar as I wandered around Boston on a beautiful Saturday morning in April.  I was in need of a lunch, it looked like a happening place, and it is always  fun to quote Fred Armisen’s brief and hilarious quotes from EuroTrip.  Scoozi’s outdoor seating is a great people watching corner.  We opted to sit inside due to the long wait...
