Highlights for the Week Ending October 17, 2014

A few more stories and articles centering on the Boston-area restaurant scene came out over the past week, including a restaurant south of Boston with well-known people behind it being replaced by another spot, a seafood place in the Back Bay announcing it will shut down, and a chain of sandwich shops expanding into the Back Bay. In addition, our sister site (Boston's Hidden Restaurants) included a new review of a Vietnamese restaurant in Allston, a photo of a dessert from an Italian spot in Lexington, and an updated review of a Mexican eatery in Melrose.

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