Highlights for the Week Ending January 20, 2012

A number of stories and articles focusing on the Boston-area restaurant scene came out over the past week, including another cupcake shop opening in downtown Boston, a culinary event to support President Obama coming to the area, and a local food truck gaining national recognition. In addition, our sister site (Boston's Hidden Restaurants) posted a featured review of a ramen place in Cambridge as well as a photo of a meat pie from an Australian spot and a new "random restaurant and food" generator.

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