Highlights for the Week Ending May 16, 2014

A few more stories and articles centering on the Boston-area restaurant scene came out over the past week, including a falafel shop opening in Kenmore Square, a restaurant that focuses on burgers and sliders coming to Medford, and a landmark eatery in the South End announcing that it is closing down. In addition, our sister site (Boston's Hidden Restaurants) included a new review of a lakeside restaurant south of the city, a list of restaurant closings and openings in the Boston area for May (so far), and a photo of a unique appetizer from a Turkish dining spot in Brookline.

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