Upper Crust Pizzeria Is Opening Another Location in Downtown Boston
An expanding local chain of pizzerias continues to grow, with a second branch planned for downtown Boston.

According to Adam's Hospitality and Tourism Industry Blog, Upper Crust Pizzeria is going to be opening on State Street in the city's Financial District. This upcoming location, which is just south of the Faneuil Hall Marketplace, is not too far from its existing Summer Street branch (near South Station). The Adam's Hospitality and Tourism Industry Blog mentions that it learned about the new location of Upper Crust from an ad in the Improper Bostonian.

Currently, locations of the Upper Crust chain can be found in Boston, Brookline, Cambridge, Hingham, Lexington, Newburyport, Plymouth, Salem, Waltham, Watertown, Wellesley, and West Roxbury, with another new one coming to Beverly this spring.

the worst is when you get someone in front of you (usually old) that has no idea how to use the system.

Or doesn't see the sign that says "No Gift Cards".

George Regan getting married
Regan Communications CEO George Regan is engaged. The powerhouse publicist told his staff today that he plans to marry Lubna McInnis, a sales executive at Kimpton Hotels, owner of the Nine Zero, Hotel Marlowe, and the Onyx. The couple - he is 60, she is much younger - have attended several events together in recent months, including a party on Nantucket and the Celtics kick-off dinner in October. Regan, whose firm represents companies ranging from Bank of America to the Boston Celtics, has been engaged at least once before, but has never married. Attempts to reach Regan and McInnis were unsuccessful today.

I saw Bourdain while driving by Murphy's Law around 4:30. What are the odds of the owners showing him the pictures from GBG?

His book is a must read for anyone who ever worked or wants to work in a restaurant.

Parents of kid shot and killed at Pace suing for $120M.

he $120 million figure in the notice of claim, he said, reflects "the family's valuation to the extent they can give any monetary valuation" of their son's worth.

Something tells me the family didn't come up with this number. The lawyer probably needs some work done on his Hampton home.

When did the meters downtown go from 15 minutes to 12 min for a quarter? I had to park on Milk St today. Also the 2 hour spots on Broad St and that area are now metered spots.
