That section of Mass Ave, starting with Pemberton and ending with Curio Spices on one side, and the Bangladeshi grocery across the ave, is a very good food destination now. (Although I miss Bengal Cafe on that strip, with its harried owners and their wildly uneven food: they had hard-to-get Bengali dishes on the menu, and when they got things right – which was often, but not always – they really hit sixes [the cricket equivalent of home runs].)
