Barrio Cantina Will do Brunch; More for Concord

NEEDHAM/TBD - Needham's Pronti Bistro is "eyeing a possible expansion closer to the city," says Grub Street. Cambridge and Allston are apparently in the running for the restaurant, which traffics largely in the paratha wraps known as prontis. And boy does it have a great logo. [GS]

CONCORD - In addition to getting the huge deal that will be the second location of Bondir, Concord will also become home to "two new restaurant concepts featuring locally farmed menu items." That news comes from a Craigslist job posting from "A leader in the hospitality business located in historic Concord." Something new for the Colonial Inn, perhaps? [Craigslist]

FENWAY - Barrio Cantina, which replaced Happy's Bar + Kitchen on Boylston Street just moments ago, has plans to eventually serve lunch and weekend brunch. Patio seating will also become available during those parts of the year when a ton of snow isn't in the forecast. [Official Site]

BACK BAY - Deuxave sous chef Adrienne Wright is now the restaurant's first ever chef de cuisine. [Official Site]
