 Helmand's address is 143 First Street. I believe it's a block or so
 from the Galleria (in the direction of Kendall Square). It's on the
 site of the former Buoniconti's (and before that, the Cambridge branch
 of Mandalay), if I'm not mistaken.

 I've eaten there two or three times, and been favorably impressed. It
 ain't cheap, but it's not outrageous either (about $20-25 per person).
