A well-known chef is going to be opening a second location of a local pastry shop.
According to a source (Gary Goldblatt) along with an earlier article from The Swellesley Report, Thiago Silva is planning to open SALT Patisserie in Wellesley, joining the original shop in Newton Centre. A Facebook post from Silva says "Location 2 loading….Wellesley MA! Hoping we get this construction going soon! Permits taking a while, but all things in Gods timing," so this appears to be in its early stages with no opening date given. Based on the Newton location, the new outlet could be offering such options as breads, cakes, cookies, muffins, croissants, prepared items to-go, coffee, and more.
Silva is a pastry chef who was born in Brazil and raised in Queens, being known in part for winning in the Food Network shows "Chopped" and "Dessert Games."
The address for the upcoming SALT Patisserie in Wellesley is 68A Central Street, Wellesley, MA, 02482. The website for the business is at https://www.saltpatisserie.com/
