Highlights for the Week Ending September 18, 2015

A few more stories and articles centering on the Boston-area restaurant scene came out over the past week, including new development slated for the South Boston space where a bar and a diner currently reside, a Boston Globe writer leaving the paper to work at a bakery, and an iconic restaurant space being leveled. In addition, our sister site (Boston's Hidden Restaurants) included a new review of a Chinese restaurant in Lexington, a photo of a cocktail at an eclectic Cambridge spot, and an updated review of a pizza and ice cream place in Boston's South End.

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