Highlights for the Week Ending January 18, 2013

Several more stories and articles focusing on the Boston-area restaurant scene came out over the past week, including a chocolate festival on the way, a pizzeria near BU closing, and a Mexican restaurant in Boston's Beacon Hill neighborhood getting the official word that it has to leave its home. In addition, our sister site (Boston's Hidden Restaurants) included an updated review of a family restaurant south of Boston, a photo of a pastry from a cafe in the SoWa section of the city, and a blog entry about our Pinterest community board.

Below are links to these and other items from the past week:
