Every September, East Somerville Main Streets holds a celebration of local cuisine, the Foodie Crawl. For 2014’s preview, we focus on two newcomers to the scene: La Brasa and Rincon Mexicano.
Elements of “old” and “new” East Somerville collided during the East End Grille’s Oktoberfest party, and we were able to capture this commingling in one image.
In our adopted neighborhood of East Somerville dining locally means enjoying cuisine from all over the globe. The restaurants show influences from El Salvador to Ethiopia, from Sicily to Sichuan, from Brazil back to New England.
With over 50 trees, a three-story water sprinkler that can also hold a movie screen, and tons of play features, Somerville’s locally-designed Chuckie Harris Park represents a truly innovative reclamation of urban space for public use.
