Tacos El Charro, 349 Centre St., will re-open as soon as the city issues an inspection certificate, owner Aida Luz Navarro said this morning.
Navarro told the Boston Licensing Board she was forced to close the restaurant earlier this year due to financial problems - she didn't have enough to pay for a required permit in December, and in January, NStar shut off power due to a $7,000 unpaid bill.
The Boston Licensing Board yesterday voted to let Deep Ellum, 477 Cambridge St., take over the space next door to open a Texas-style taco place called Lone Star Taco Bar.
The board also gave Boston Kabob Co., 164 Brighton Ave., permission to stay open until 1 a.m., Thursday through Saturday. The kaboberia had asked for permission to keep the lights on until 2 a.m. those days.
Joshua Krefetz reports the Allston Civic Association voted tonight to support Deep Ellum's proposal to expand into space next door and create a Lone Star Taco Bar.
The Boston Licensing Board has the final say.
Mike Mennonno reports he's finally had enough of sneering, snorting, obnoxious taco makers at his local Anna's:
... I've actually seen two of them gang up on a customer -- a Tufts student I think he was -- berating him for calling pico de gallo "salsa", almost bringing the poor kid to tears. They often mutter to one another in Spanish about customers who annoy them. And by the way, amigos: I know what "una puta flaca mala" means.
Apparently so. Wicked Local Brookline reports Qdoba has shut its Coolidge Corner outlet.
Carolyn Grantham reports on her project to eat every single type of taco sold by La Verdad Taqueria in the Fenway.
Burrito Blog confirms that Anna's Taqueria is opening at Mass. General Hospital.
Sign in the window of John F. Kennedy TV repair place on South Street, Roslindale Square. It's right around the corner from Wapo Taco, where they must have finally gotten tired of people asking them if they sold subs (they also have a sign advising "No Pizza!"):
