Guess it doesn’t matter that all of the neighborhood’s waiters use fake accents? Be on the lookout for a bigger Bricco: Owner Frank DePasquale recently purchased property adjacent to his Hanover Street restaurant with expansion in mind. (More room, perhaps, to serve those questionable martinis we told you about last summer?) Donata Frattaroli of Lucia Ristorante, meanwhile, has filed for an entertainment license to liven up his restaurant’s basement. Oh, and a small takeout restaurant might soon move into the old Go Bananas! spot at 65 Salem Street. [Northendwaterfront.com via Boston Hospitality Industry]
