Highlights for the Week Ending June 29, 2012

A few more stories and articles focusing on the Boston-area restaurant scene came out over the past week, including a Denver-based burger chain coming to Boston, an oyster bar being recognized by a popular travel website, and a celebrity food chef and TV personality bringing a burger restaurant to Burlington. In addition, our sister site (Boston's Hidden Restaurants) included an updated review of a restaurant and bar in Somerville, a photo of lobster bisque from a seafood restaurant in Gloucester, and a blog entry on the best restaurants of 2012 (so far).
