Fresh Food Generation Is Opening Near Dorchester's Codman Square

The people behind a food truck and catering business will be opening a restaurant in a section of Boston that has relatively few options for sit-down dining.

According to an article from the Dorchester Reporter, Cassandria Campbell and Jackson Renshaw are opening Fresh Food Generation on the outskirts of Codman Square, with the Talbot Avenue dining spot planning to have eight seats inside and approximately 20 to 30 more seats outdoors. The food offerings at the upcoming place will have Caribbean and Southern influences, with some of the options including a kale salad, Jamaican jerk chicken, red bean stew, salmon, rice plates, and more, while they also plan to offer beer and wine.

In addition to setting up a food truck at various spots in the city, Campbell and Renshaw have also been running a catering company within CommonWealth Kitchen in Grove Hall; it looks like they will ultimately be basing their operation out of 191 Talbot Avenue in Codman Square while their restaurant appears to be going into a space at 185 Talbot Avenue, based on information from the article.
