Let's grab a bite of restaurant news with Eater Boston.

CAMBRIDGE—Ten Tables Cambridge closed unexpectedly, with its last service taking place on New Year's Eve. That location was sold to the general manager of the Jamaica Plain location (which remains open under the original ownership).

UNION SQUARE —After five years of focusing solely on multi-course tasting experiences, Journeyman is converting to a more casual restaurant on Mondays through Wednesdays. Plus, the team is doing away with stoves, molecular gastronomy, and sous vide cooking; instead, all cooking will be done on a wood-burning fireplace.

SOUTH END/MILTON—A couple new openings this week: Brendan Pelley's modern Greek pop-up Pelekasis has launched at Wink & Nod, where it'll live for at least six months. And in Milton, Novara (from the Abby Park team) has opened in an old theater.
