36 Hours in Boston???

My boyfriend and I are planning on going to Boston in a couple weeks for approx 36 hours. We've never been and would like to see as much as possible, any suggestions?
We are also big "foodies" and would love to know where we should go to eat (breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, dessert, late night, etc). We are probably staying downtown, but we don't have any issue hopping on the subway and going elsewhere.

    Also, some extra Boston food profile info for you:

    --------------------------------------------

    Some of our fav dinner spots:

    Oleana- Cambridge; really unusual Turkish/Mediterranean menu; farm-to-table;charming patio.

    Neptune Oyster- North End; crowded tiny always a line, top quality inventive seafood along w/ trad.Lunch ev day as well.

    Island Creek Oyster Bar- the BEST service, large room but intimate, more trad but some inventive

    Strip T's (in a 'suburb', 10 min cab from harvard square) for serious foodies; Momofuku chef; great inventive Asian inspired but also best fried chicken and burger in Boston imo

    -----------------------------------------------

    Don't know if you're here for a sunday, but for brunch, you cannot have more fun than at East Coast Grill in Cambridge. A real locals' fav for all ages; latin, mexican,bbq and and seafood; Bloody Mary bar; great vibe.
