A fairly decent mass-appeal Chinese palace type restaurant on rt.9. I think its west of Computer Drive (where the old GTE bldg, now Staples (?) is - the big glinting silver monstrosity). Cheng Du is the old site of the only yuppy mesquite grill restaurant ever to survive over 3 years in Westboro - Gill's Grill. There are a few supermarkets these days (Super Stop & Shop, some name store in the Westboro Plaza), although prices are so high I would consider some garden space in your new backyard. Someone told me there's some good cornedbeef and cabbage to be had at, what's the name?, Harry's (?) - Looks clapped out on the outside, but supposedly a treasure. Around the traffic circle of Westboro proper you'll find the Picadilly Pub (I think they're still there) - family-style burger 'n beer joint one notch above the 99. The Old Vienna Coffeehaus (sp?) is somewhere nearby. good luck.
