Chinese Mirch Is Opening in Boston

A Chinese/Indian restaurant with one location in the MetroWest area and another in New York City is going to be opening a third outlet in a busy section of Boston.

Eater Boston is reporting (via a Licensing Board page on the City of Boston website) that Chinese Mirch is planning to open on Mass. Ave, near Symphony Hall where a location of Sebastians had been until closing in the fall of 2012. The article mentions that the new dining spot is hoping to include a 36-seat patio as well as indoor seating and apparently a bar area. Once it opens, the new Chinese Mirch will join another branch on Route 9 in Framingham as well as one on Lexington Avenue in Manhattan. (Another location in Stamford, CT, has closed because the building in which it resided has been torn down; it is hoping to relocate.)

[November 21 update: According to a note on its Facebook page, Chinese Mirch opens its doors in Boston tomorrow.]

Chinese Mirch, which first started out in New York in 2003, features dishes that mix Indian herbs and spices with Chinese-style cooking.

The address for this new Chinese/Indian restaurant in Boston is: Chinese Mirch, 251 Massachusetts Avenue, Boston, MA, 02115. Its website can be found at http://www.chinesemirch.com/
