Journeyman is opening in Somerville’s Union Square tomorrow and we’ve got a look at what they’ll be serving opening night. Though Journeyman doesn’t present many menu options, co-owner and chef Diana Kudayarova tells Grub Street they aim to offer diners a “cohesive experience with a beginning, middle, and end.” The menu will be changing daily and will only feature local ingredients. But you might want to reserve your table well in advance; Journeyman is totally booked for opening week. Diane is especially excited about the pork they’re serving opening night at Journeyman and tells Grub Street, “Our pork is from heritage-breed pigs (Tamworths), raised specifically for us on North Face Farm in Dunstable. They spent their lives running around, digging, and foraging on a wooded pasture.” The cost of a dinner at Journeyman depends on how many courses you opt for with a price structure starting at $39 for three courses, $65 for five courses, and $85 for seven courses.
