What’s up?

Just read that the Explorateur in downtown Boston is closing. I’ve never dined there, but they had a gorgeous back room for small/modest-sized events. While I can’t speak to the food, that this beautiful space is going to be taken over by Guy Fieri places is just maddening!

OFFS. I can’t put enough 
in here.
And Eater’s Boston page says
Meanwhile, Chicken Guy is a chicken-centered fast-casual option; the seven existing locations are in malls and stadiums. Chicken Guy features chicken tenders brined in lemon, pickle, and buttermilk, served with a variety of sauces (yep, there’s Donkey Sauce) and sides."
So - they’re usually located in malls and stadiums, and Tremont Street is considered a good place? Hopefully both places will close as quickly as the NY location of the Kitchen & Bar site.

Gustavo’s new location on Moody street in Waltham has officially open!
We tried to go last night (Saturday) as a walk in 2 top and couldn’t get it. The bar was packed, several open tables but of course no idea if bar patrons were waiting or reservations - and the hostesses told us “sorry”. So we turned around and went up the block to Brewer’s Tap and Table (which was also insanely packed that night).
Gustavo’s remake of the space looked nice from the quick view we had and we will give it a try again. But if anyone gets there I’d be curious if they are doing anything differently in the new space.

I would say Brewer’s Tap and Table is that area’s best combo of beer selection (extensive rotating taps) and pretty good, moderately priced food. I don’t know that I’d travel far specifically to go there, but it has been a solid option for those of us in the general vicinity.
