Tenoch Coming to Davis Square?

[jdh0625.livejournal.com]

I just stumbled on this, which is a few weeks old, but I haven't seen it posted.

Tenoch, which has locations in Medford Square and in the North End, is moving into Kickass Cupcakes' old storefront in October. This would be the Kickass Cupcakes storefront closer to Davis on the corner of Highland and Cutter, near When Pigs Fly and where M3 used to be.

I like this.  Tenoch is awesome.  I think it's better than Anna's and Chipotle and it also has a somewhat different focus -- a more adventurous menu of tortas and tacos.  They have burritos as well, but they aren't the centerpiece.

That block is a little tricky given how far down Highland from Davis it is and the implications that has for foot traffic.  The stretch of Highland from Davis to Grove is pretty lifeless outside of Five Horses and then there's Kenney Park and Rite Aid.  A great number of people who walk home from the T in that direction do so via the Community Path.  It's a little out of sight, out of mind, so fingers crossed that they do well.

Northern lights tonight

[eanja]

Maybe more over than technically in Davis Square, but probably of interest to at least some of the residents.

Apparently the northern lights may be visible in the Boston area tonight (courtesy of a really huge solar flare which may also mess with phones and gps and anything else satellite based).

This is a pretty rare occurrence.

Does anyone have suggestions for any good places to stargaze/watch for this in the area?

Rosebud reopens on 9/15

Well, this is exciting!

I didn't miss it when the old Rosebud closed, because I never really had good food there, and much of it was downright awful. Now, however, I'm actually looking forward to trying out the new incarnation!
