More Memories of Closed Boston, New England Restaurants
City-Data, one of our favorite sites to find out more information about towns and cities in the United States, has a thread on closed Boston area and New England restaurants. Yes, I started it, but the best part is the reader feedback. Some of these restaurants struck an emotional chord like the Bel Canto pizza chain, and Elsie's and the Averof in Cambridge, Mass. But wait, that's not all! There's another City-Data thread entitled "Favorite restaurants that are no longer there." Some of these include memories of the Magic Pan in Burlington, Mass., Eddie's Diner in Quincy, Mass., the Pewter Pot chain, Buttrick's Ice Cream in Arlington, Mass., and of course, the immortal York Steak House. Enjoy these fun threads!
