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.
Three Massachusetts restaurants were recognized in national publications this week for being among the best in the nation.
Bon Appétit included restaurants from Cambridge and Quincy on its list of the 24 best new restaurants across the nation. Meanwhile, the New York Times released a list of the most exciting restaurants across the U.S. right now, and Dorchester's Comfort Kitchen was the pick from Massachusetts. The restaurant is a "celebration of the ingredients and flavors of the African diaspora — global comfort food — connected from Asia to the Americas."
