Highlights for the Week Ending May 31, 2013

A few more stories and articles centering on the Boston-area restaurant scene came out over the past week, including an Asian dining spot opening in the South End, a popular restaurant guide including two dishes from Boston-area eateries among its favorites of 2013 (so far), and an ice cream cafe opening a second location in Somerville. In addition, our sister site (Boston's Hidden Restaurants) included an updated review of a restaurant and bar in Quincy, a question about long-closed dining spots that are missed, and some updates to the dive bar photo gallery.

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