It's always satisfying to find something which you have missed seeing for years

202 Humboldt Ave

The listing on Google is funny, as it claims this is Dorchester.

I got there a little after 1pm and they were almost sold out for the day. They are very filling, next time I'll just get one. I liked the beef & cheese, better than the chicken & cheese.

Two new places selling this. One in Nubian Square and the other in Roxbury Crossing.

Let's see how long I can put off eating this new type of food. 😆

Support for Jackey - Roxbury Community Member Effected by TPS

Our Roxbury neighbor, Jackey, is at risk of losing housing after the revocation of long-standing immigration protections that have stripped her legal ability to work. We are crowd sourcing funds to support Jackey, her sister, and her five-year old niece, with four months of rent as they navigate the challenging landscape of an unfamiliar reality. More information about Jackey is outlined below and we hope you can donate.
