Still working on it.

It sounds like the hummmmm in your ears

>Cause that pic is super unclear.

Looks pretty clear on desktop. I'm guessing you're on mobile. The map has a legend that says "Alley Closure" and then a red&white striped demarcation next to it. On the map you see that same red&white striped demarcation where the alley will be closed.

This seems like super insufficient warning, notification, and time for dispute.

Also, can anyone else exactly what they’re closing? Cause that pic is super unclear. And both alleys connected to Hakesley Place are drivable (unless changed in the past few years)

Is it that vague blur at the top of the map? Why is the map centered on Hakesley Place?

If it’s already undrivable, what are they doing to close it off? What’s the point of putting money into closing it off if vehicles already don’t fit?

Any updates? Still always stuck at Mulberry

I tried their burger on someone’s recommendation after complaining that all their other food was crap.

And I got a steak because I think I just wanted steak

I went to Cafe Campli and loved it. They're debuting their dinner menu this week. Great vibe, friendly service, and everything I had was delicious. They also have wine pairings for each course, which I'm a huge sucker for.

Oh, no. I haven’t eaten fast food in probably 15 years (except chipotle, but obviously not in hampden cause that one is awful).

I’m comparing it to other restaurants: foraged, la Cuchara, Thames st oyster house, tapas teatro, alma cocina, etc.

Thats a heavy freight corridor and getting CSX to allowing passenger service back would be very hard.

Why would you go there for steak and burgers? I go there to try their unique take on classic American dishes.

You should stick to the fast casual chains.

Do you have a kid there?

Our kid is in Medfield and they're superific. The leadership team is outstanding, great teachers and active community. Brand new building too.

Can I ask what sort of problem you're looking to solve? You can be general or DM me. Wife has one that specializes in allergies.

Some of the menus this time around are just insane. At Taco Mama you can get the Loco burrito + flan off the RW menu: $30. Loco burrito + flan off the regular menu: $25.

Curious, why no marc from Baltimore to western MD on the old main line?

I don't eat steaks or burgers so I can't really say anything to that, but I've had some good food their and didn't find the prices to be that bad.

But if you're just used to fast food I could see it being something of a shock. Your dollar will go a lot further at a McDonalds.

Food market is just wildly expensive for what you get, which is why it’s mediocre. They’ve got some okay items on their menu, but nothing I tried was ever better than mediocre. Overcooked steaks and burgers. Tiny portioned apps. Everything wildly under seasoned.

As someone who lived in Hampden for a long long time, I highly disagree that they're mediocre. They've got some absolute bangers on their menu.

If you wanted mediocre that's what Cafe Hon was for. If you wanted inedible that was Golden West.

Food Market wasn't the best food in Hampden but it was far better than "mediocre"

I once used it regularly but I stopped. Every time I ended a lease I'd have an extremely high balance to pay. Like it wasn't even worth it to me, but I am a pay now or pay a moderate amount over time than a pay later all at once/surprise! person.

I have no advice but just want to affirm that your bills seem very high and definitely worth investigating further. My row home is about a third larger than yours and is older so there’s no insulation on the exterior walls, but we do have some in the attic. We keep our house at around 70, and are getting bills of about $250/month for both gas and electric.

Lol I wrote my post before scrolling to see yours. Seems like they just can’t get restaurant week right.

Foraged is a NO for restaurant week, not sure about regularly. I went for last restaurant week and they had no restaurant week menu at all and no deals even though they were on the website… it was ridiculous. This time I am trying Sotto Sopra!

Good call. He still lives in the neighborhood, but not sure if he’s still taking work. Hopefully so.

Probably unpopular opinion, but I don’t think that Restaurant Week is actually the best time to try new places. Prices don’t seem to be any better, kind of seems like a rip off; it’s all prix fixe, which works for fancier places, but just seems like catering food from places that don’t usually have this type of service
