The Boston Herald reports that Ming Tsai of Wellesley's Blue Ginger is going to be meeting with folks in the Fort Point section of Boston to talk about a proposed new restaurant at the corner of A Street and Melcher Street, where the A Street Deli used to be. The article mentions that the spot that Ming is eyeing has 2,100 square feet of space and a potential capacity of 70, plus additional room if a proposed roof deck comes to fruition. It is not yet known what kind of restaurant it would be, though rumors have been floating around as to a possible concept for the place (as soon as we can confirm the exact concept, we will post an update here).
[July 18 update: The Boston Globe mentions that the new eatery from Ming Tsai will be a Chinese restaurant.]
[July 19 update: Leah Mennies of Boston Magazine reports via an email from Ming Tsai that his new Fort Point dining spot will NOT be a Chinese restaurant, and Ming is keeping the concept a secret for now. But the Fort Point Boston Blog indicates that we may know soon, as Ming is having a community meeting about the eatery at 12 Farnsworth Street next Monday (July 23) at 6:00 PM.]
Ming Tsai is also the host of "Simply Ming," a cooking show on PBS.
The address for this planned restaurant in the Fort Point area of Boston is 324 A Street, Boston, MA, 02210.
