Highlights for the Week Ending August 15, 2014

Several more stories and articles focusing on the Boston-area restaurant scene came out over the past week, including a landmark South End restaurant announcing that it will close, a Somerville eatery being seized by the state, and location of a popular group of seafood restaurants closing for approximately a year. In addition, our sister site (Boston's Hidden Restaurants) included an updated review of a restaurant in Dorchester, an updated list of closings and openings for August (so far), and a photo of a donut from a Somerville shop.
