Jae's Lives

Posted on April 11, 2009 at 2:37pm 2 Comments 0 Likes

Heading to Jae's in the South End of Boston tonight for the first time in more than a decade. Jae's first opened in the 90's in Cambridge and was a pioneer in Asian fusion. The Inman Sq restaurant was in my neighborhood and it was there I discovered sushi, Pho, and other then-exotic items. It went out of biz in Cambridge a while ago and I forgot about the one still in Boston--the original, I believe.

So...fingers crossed it still has it. Anyone been there lately?

I'll be in touch...

At 9:33pm on April 10, 2009, Peter Romeo said…: Nice to hear from you, Lisa. It's been awhile. Fortunately we both started when we were in grade school (play along, play along). I see you also worked with Fire & Ice, Doug Zeif's company. We might've spoken then as well. Keep me in mind about any green restaurant stories pertaining to your clients (I contribute regularly to the National Restaurant Association's Conserve site). And thanks for your kind words about the blog. I really love the blog format.

At 1:47pm on April 10, 2009, Lisa Fruitt said…: After 25+ years doing marketing and PR for hotels and restaurants I feel like I'm part of the industry. But, alas, still just a lover of food and wine, not an owner/operator...yet. I do have a wine blog...blog.vinoduo.com. Check it out!
