A pop-up is on its way to the heart of Boston, and it will feature a beloved food item that is particularly north of the border.
According to a press release, the Poutinerie by Air Canada pop-up is coming to 267 Washington Street in Downtown Crossing, debuting on Thursday, October 3 and running through Sunday, October 13. The poutine pop-up, which will be open from 11:00 AM to 9:00 PM daily, will offer such options as a classic Montreal-style poutine (fries, cheese curds, and gravy), a Toronto version called "The North" (sharp cheddar cheese instead of curds and beer-braised pork added), and versions with international influences including Paris "'Tine de Triomphe" (fries, duck confit, creme de brie, black pepper), Sao Paulo "Sampa" (thick-cut fries, grilled hanger steak, chimichurri), Tokyo "The Shibu-yeah!" (thick-cut fries, ground pork, ponzu and sesame sauce, pickled daikon or shredded carrot, ginger), and others. Boston is the fourth city to host Poutinerie by Air Canada, with the pop-up previously coming to Washington, DC, London, and Denver.
Proceeds from the Poutinerie by Air Canada pop-up will benefit About Fresh, a Boston-based nonprofit that helps bring healthy food to those in need.

Gordon's Fine Wines and Liquors Is Taking Over the Wine Cellar Space in Boston's Downtown Crossing
It looks like a popular group of liquor stores located in the suburbs of Boston will be bringing a new one to the heart of the city.
According to a legal notice sent to us by a source, Gordon's Fine Wines and Liquors is looking to open in Downtown Crossing, taking over the site on Temple Place where the Wine Cellar is located. Little else is currently known about the proposed transfer of businesses other than the fact that the new shop is looking to be open until 11:00 PM.
Gordon's Fine Wines and Liquors, which says on its Twitter page that it is "the leading purveyor of fine wines, spirits and beer in our New England stores and online," has locations in Waltham, Watertown, and Newtonville.
The address for the Wine Cellar (and the new location of Gordon's) is 39 Temple Place, Boston, MA, 02111.
Thanks to @DGoodison for initially bringing this to our attention.
[October 26 update: Eater Boston states that Gordon's has gotten the green light to open in Downtown Crossing, and that it will include "a mini version" of Moody's in Waltham within the store, with the deli counter offering such items as cheeses, charcuterie, pre-made sandwiches to go, and, eventually, sandwiches that are made to order along with sliced meats, with products being under the New England Charcuterie label. If all goes as planned, expect the new location of Gordon's (and Moody's) to open sometime in the early winter.]
[December 30 update: A new article from Eater Boston notes that Gordon's (and the Moody's deli counter) has softly opened in the former Wine Cellar space.]

DavidsTea Plans to Open in Downtown Crossing, South End, Back Bay
Last month we mentioned that a chain of tea shops based in Canada was apparently planning to open a store in the South End of Boston. Now we have learned that not only has this been confirmed, but that the chain is also looking to open other shops in the city.
The Boston Herald is reporting that DavidsTea is going to be opening at 294 Washington Street in Downtown Crossing and is also looking around the Back Bay for another location as well. These two are in addition to the aforementioned South End store that is on its way to 661 Tremont Street. The Herald says that the Downtown Crossing location should be open before the holidays; there is currently no word on when the South End location might open, or where exactly in the Back Bay the chain is looking for its third location in Boston.
[November 20 update: Eater Boston mentions that the Downtown Crossing location of DavidsTea has opened. The address is 298 Washington Street, Boston, MA, 02108.]
[March 1, 2013 update: The Tremont Street location of DavidsTea is now open.]
In addition to approximately 75 stores in Canada, DavidsTea also has locations in New York City and San Francisco. The stores offer an array of premium loose leaf teas, including exclusive tea blends. Their website is at http://www.davidstea.com/
