Is there anything new and exciting about to open that you have heard about?

11:04

Devra First - Yes, lots. Trina's Starlite Lounge just opened -- fried chicken and waffles, many permutations of the hot dog, and fun cocktails -- in the old Abbey space in Inman Square.

11:05

Devra First - Banq changed names, concepts, and chefs: now Patricia Yeo from New York is in the kitchen, creating small, shareable plates with influences from all over Asia.

11:05

Devra First - Those are both open.

11:05

Devra First - Coming up, there's Ken Oringer and Jamie Bissonnette's Coppa, the Regal Beagle, Market from Jean-Georges Vongerichten... a whole slew of stuff.

11:06

Devra First - What are you all excited about?

Heard anything about the new jazz bar and cafe opening in the old Gusto space in Rozzie Square?

11:07

Devra First - All I know is it says Jazz Bar! Seems awfully vague... Any guesses?

Morning Devra, some friends and I are debating the following: Which is better Cuchi Cuchi (cambridge) or Toro ? I struggle with this one myself but lean towards Toro

11:07

Devra First - Toro. Anyone else want to weigh in?

Hi Devra- any insight on what's opeing in the space formery occupied by Bonfire? They've been quite busy and quite secretive...

11:08

Devra First - I've tried to get it out of them, but I think they're holding out and hoping to make a big splash somewhere with the announcement.

Hey Devra! Anything new and exciting in the Sushi world?! Have you tried Fish Market? I hear it's pretty good.

11:10

Devra First - I have yet to try it, and it's been on my list for an awfully long time. I've heard good things as well.

Hi Devra! have you been to post 390 yet?

11:11

Devra First - Not yet -- I was on the West Coast for a while, just got back and catching up on eating. Any reports?

I checked out the new Post 390- very interesting space- lots of fireplaces. Thought the menu was a good mix for 'urban tavern', and the food was well done- I bet it's a hit...

not yet- a friend tried to make a brunch reservation for their first weekend, but the restaurant canceled b/c i guess they weren't ready for brunch yet. i'm interested in checking it out though.

11:13

Devra First - Yes, sounds like it will appeal to a lot of people. I'm looking forward to the fireplaces this winter.
