An Asian restaurant in Providence whose chef/owner was in the running for a prestigious award earlier this year is expanding to the local area.
According to an article from Boston Magazine, Jahunger on Wickenden Street in Fox Point is going to be joined by a second location on Brookline Street in Cambridgeport, featuring Uyghur cuisine (which is found in the northwest section of China), including such options as lamb dumplings, chicken stew, hand-pulled noodles, lamb skewers, and Asian chili with eggplant in garlic sauce. If all goes well, the new location of Jahunger could open in early May.
Subat Dilmurat, who runs Jahunger with his wife Nadira Parhat, made it to the semifinals of the 2024 James Beard Awards for Best Chef: Northeast.
The address for the new location of Jahunger is 272 Brookline Street, Cambridge, MA, 02139. The website for Jahunger can be found at https://www.jahunger.com/
[June 2 update: According to a Facebook post from Rachel Blumenthal of Boston Magazine, the Cambridge location of Jahunger is now open.]
