Wahlburgers Prepares for Dorchester Homecoming

The Wahlberg brothers are opening a restaurant in their hometown

A growing burger empire from a group of famous brothers debuts its newest restaurant this month in Dorchester. Wahlburgers opens very soon at the South Bay development (9 District Ave., Boston) — the exact date will be announced this week — and it will have a public celebration Monday, December 17, outside the new restaurant.

This marks a homecoming of sorts for Wahlberg brothers Mark, Donnie, and Paul, who grew up in Dorchester and will now bring their burger chain home in grand fashion, with a 5,000-square-foot restaurant, seven years after opening its first location in Hingham and later expanding to around 30 locations, documenting the process on a reality television show — also called Wahlburgers — that began in 2014.

The family table at Wahlburgers in Dorchester

With ample seating, the Dorchester Wahlburgers features a “family table,” which has different furniture than elsewhere in the restaurant, giving a nod to the Wahlberg family, whose family photos appear in collage form in a portion of the restaurant.

Though the formal public opening will follow later this month, the pre-opening celebration on December 17 will feature the Wahlburgers food truck and apparel sales, with a portion of the proceeds going towards the Martin Richard Foundation. The restaurant will also collect unwrapped toy donations for the Boys & Girls Club of Dorchester.

”We are so excited to join our friends and family and welcome home Wahlburgers to the Dorchester South Bay Shopping Center. This has been a long time coming,” said Mark Wahlberg in a release.

Wahlburgers has locations all around the country and in Canada, with aggressive United Kingdom expansion plans in the works as well. (There has also been talk of massive expansion through Asia and the Middle East, although those plans haven’t yet come to fruition.)

The Dorchester restaurant will serve the chain’s familiar menu of burgers, sandwiches, salads, fries, onion rings, and tater tots. It also has a liquor license and will serve a selection of local beers on tap, in addition to frappes (boozy and non-boozy) and ice cream floats.

Wahlburgers is one of several restaurants opening this year at South Bay. Midici (a Neapolitan-style pizzeria), Totto (a ramen shop), Gyu-Kaku (a Japanese barbecue chain), and Grill 110 (a quickly expanding local chain) are in the works as well.

So I decided that after I finish a drama I should write a bit about it since whenever I go on a message board about drama it seems like all anyone ever does is ask for very specific recs and I can never properly give one cos I forget everything about a drama like a day after watching. Seriously even ones I really like! I’ll be going through mydramalist and I’ll see shows I gave very good ratings to that I don’t even remember watching. Anyway first up is...

Totto Terebi

Pros: It was very unique drama, it was super informative about the early days of television in Japan, some really unexpected cameos

Cons: It was kind of strange and jumbled up, you probably need to know a bit about early Japanese TV to get some of it, it was actually really sad (might be a pro for some...)

I cried pretty much all through the last three episodes. Totto is a really well known figure in Japan but there’s actually really not even that much info about her in English so it’s kind of hard to understand this... for me it was anyway. I suppose some people might be able to enjoy this without any prior knowledge but idk.

I would recommend this to: People who are super in to the history of television, maybe people who are in to historical dramas in general but it’s really different from other historical dramas, people who are Mitsushima Hikari fans.

Final verdict: Good in some ways but not a must watch.

Japanese Hostess Interviewed by Her Robot Double

Meet totto, an android modeled on Kuroyanagi herself. The android was modeled from a 3D scan, and her voice synthesized using audio from her original's 42 years of television work. Her name comes from Kuroyanagi's childhood nickname -- which also supplies the title of Totto-chan!, a new drama starting next month about the personality's childhood. The android, and the project surrounding it, were created as part of the hype around the new drama.

A video has been released showing totto interviewing Kuroyanagi in the style of the actress's own talk show:

youtube

According to the android's official website, the creation is the beginning of something called the Totto no Yume Project. The site hints that totto will assist Kuroyanagi in spreading smiles throughout Japan and the world, and that she'll get better at conversing over time.

It's a cool idea, but hopefully totto's creators won't be too offended if we, you know, just sort of keep an eye on things.

It is a given that there are lots of people in need all over the world. It is also a given that those who have more should give more, hence, the great number of charitable organizations and institutions that exist today. Of course, not everyone can afford to donate millions to their favorite foundations and causes and even if they can they don’t always do so altruistically. Money and power tend to corrupt. Some powerful people, however, have shown us that this isn’t always the case. These are 25 people who are known for their charity and they show us that humanity is indeed capable of great good.

'Having eyes, but not seeing beauty; having ears, but not bearing music; having minds, but not perceiving truth; having hearts that are never moved and therefore never set on fire. These are the things to fear, said the headmaster. As for Totto-chan, as she leaped and ran about in her bare feet, like Isadora Duncan, she was tremendously happy and could hardly believe that this was part of going to school!' Tetsuko Kuroyanagi is one Japan's most popular television personalities. Its her memoir written in simple and short reflecting pieces. Instead of chapters we have sequentially placed actions and memories of her childhood. From being expelled for being overtly curious to becoming the student of Tomoe Gakuen. Its not only a recollection of her childhood, but a tribute to her school that was five train cars, fifty students and one visionary Headmaster- Sosaku Kobayashi. His school unique, where vegetables were prizes for equally queer sports day celebration. Students were taught to respect each other, irrespective being a dwarf or polio stricken boy, everybody was equal. Science was taught through walks in forest, and eurythmics to develop both mental and physical strength. Though a memoir the author writes from third person, and writes as if she is observing Totto-chan's development through the trouble times of Second World War. And the translation justifies this technique of non-I Novel well! This unique school has similar spirit to Tagore's Ananda Pathshala. It's a must read for every other person who miss their childhood. #tottochan by #testukokuroyanagi translated by #dorothybritton #book #reading #bookstagram #bookreview #instabook #reader #bibliophile #literaturelover #japaneseliterature #booklover #bookworm #womenstudies #instabooks #literature #booknerd #books #bookgeek #bookworm #bookover #bookphotography #bookreview #bookaholic #booklovers #booklove #bookaddict #bookish #memoir #womensrightsarehumanrights #womensmarch (at Golfgreen Central Park)
