Casablanca Wire

For the Globe, Kara Baskin muses on the spirits of the shuttered Casablanca, whose space is now home to Alden & Harlow. While most evidence of the storied restaurant is now gone, "maybe not much has changed on Brattle Street after all," concludes Baskin, looking at the "drinks flowing and voices rising, grizzled professors sitting side by side with students, preening fashionistas, and a few gargoyles at the bar" at Alden & Harlow on a recent night.
