Highlights for the Week Ending March 8, 2013

A few more stories and articles centering on the Boston-area restaurant scene came out over the past week, including a popular food and drink festival returning to the area, a dining spot starting up a burger challenge, and a taco truck looking to open a brick-and-mortar restaurant. In addition, our sister site (Boston's Hidden Restaurants) included an updated review of a diner in Winchester, a new photo slideshow on breakfast items, and a food chat with a Cooking Channel host.
