Wow, I guess it’s been a while since I’ve posted, I was on vacation and then easing back into work and I just haven’t felt like sitting at a computer any longer than I have to but I’ll hop back on the blogging train and start posting regularly again.
So there’s not too much going on but I did notice at 330 Concord St. there is a new Indian grocery store opening up.
In a semi-related story I was told there is going ot be a Chinese-Indian restaurant opening up near or on Rt. 9, I haven’t got the details but I’ll post more on that once I investigate.
So if you like Indian food, there’s a couple of things for you to look forward to!

I was reading an article in the MWDN about a proposed classy strip joint at the former Tin Alley Grill location.
I’m usually all for small business and it would be great to not have that building vacant but I feel like this isn’t going to do Framingham any favors since we have a little bit of a PR problem as it is. But who knows, maybe it would be the most rootinist, tootinist strip club around! I feel like it won’t get approved though and that would be fine with me.
For more information you can read the MWDN article here.

I have heard from a couple of sources now that the site of (the dearly missed) Green Tea II is looking to become a sports bar kind of place. The proposed name is “Angry Ham’s Garage”. I’m not sure if “Ham” is meant as the loving nickname for our fair town or not but I just thought it was so funny. From what I was told, the proposing owner is local, not part of a chain of any sort. I’ll be interested to see how Angry Ham’s Garage progresses!

The downstairs space at 945 Worcester Rd. has something going on in it. There aren’t any permits online but the guy at the liquor store next door said it’s going to be a tattoo parlor. I’m not sure how he found out, but I’m guessing since he’s next door he knows more than I do. I’m not into tattoos so I’m not that excited, but I’m sure the college kids across the street will be and I’m glad that the space will be occupied with a tax-paying business.

A source told me that Bronzetti’s pizza planning on moving into the space that Red Pepper is in. The source is usually pretty reliable but I don’t see any permits yet to confirm. I don’t know if the rt. 9 location would stay open as well or if this is even really happening but I think it would be an improvement to what’s there now. I know some people love Red Pepper but we had a pretty bad meal there and I got some take out Hot and Sour soup there that was pretty much flavored with just black pepper (ironically not red). I think this location would be a great location for a pizza hangout and Liam-esque kind of place. We’ll see if this happens.

I was looking through the permit listing on the town website and noticed some recent permit action at 2 Beacon St. The photo above is when this location was Michi Kusa but it was last occupied by Green Tea II. Ethan and I loved a scallop dish of theirs and were really bummed out when they closed.
As of January 12th, there are permits approved for a liquor and victualer license under the business name “Green Tea 2″, so I hope this means they’re coming back. Stay tuned!
