Mu Ramen to Open in Cambridge's Harvard Square

It looks like a new ramen shop will be opening in one of the busiest sections of Cambridge, and the person behind it comes from a top restaurant in New York City.

Eater Boston is reporting that Mu Ramen, a pop-up spot in the Long Island City section of Queens, plans to open somewhere in Harvard Square, with a Twitter post from the restaurant saying that it is looking to open sometime next year. Joshua Smookler and his wife Heidy are the couple behind the eatery, with EB saying that they are going to be turning their pop-up restaurant in Long Island City into a brick-and-mortar spot in the next month or so. Once the Harvard Square shop opens, expect to see various ramen options as well as steamed buns and snacks.

Joshua Smookler comes from the award-winning Manhattan restaurant Per Se, according to Eater Boston.
