Boston Gets Less Friendly: MA Food Week

MASSACHUSETTS — Welcome to Patch's weekly round up of food and restaurant news in Massachusetts, where we review openings, closings and more in the state's dining scene.

The old saying goes: Don't cry over spilled milk. Well, what about spilled pineapples and the closure of the last remaining Friendly's in Boston?

Those two things are realities in Massachusetts this week, as the sweet fruit spilled onto I-495 earlier in the week, and the Boston Logan Airport location of Friendly's became the last in the city to close.

But there is good news for a few local businesses in Massachusetts.

Here's what was cooking this week:

• Salem Derby Street Pizza Joint, Bowling Alley Closes
• Beverly EarthSpring Series Looks To Expand Beyond Single Day Of Focus, With Help From Local Brewers
• Friendly's Closes Last Remaining Restaurant In Boston
• Rail Trail Flatbread In Milford Seeks Outdoor Seating Space
• Rosewood Restaurant Reopens For Treat Season: Ice Cream, Fried Clams
• Pineapple Truck Overturns On I-495, Spilling Thousands Of Fruits
• Wayland Pie Company Bringing Scratch-Made Pizza To Town
