Danny Meyer's First Boston-Area Restaurant Is Opening in Harvard Square Next Week
Daily Provisions, the all-day cafe from Union Square Hospitality Group — a well-known NYC restaurant group founded by famed restaurateur Danny Meyer — is set to debut in Harvard Square, at 1 Brattle Square, on Monday, July 21. It'll have all the hits that put the fast-casual restaurant on the map in New York, including fluffy, sweet crullers in flavors like maple and cinnamon, as well as bacon, egg, and cheese sandwiches for breakfast, plus salads, sandwiches, and juicy roast chickens later in the day. The first 100 customers at the Harvard Square shop on opening day will receive a free cruller, per a press release. Going forward, the cafe will be open from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. every day.
This debut marks the 10th Daily Provisions location for the company, and the first outside of New York and New Jersey. Another Boston-area Daily Provisions, plus a second location of USHG's upscale Italian restaurant Ci Siamo, are slated to open in the Seaport in spring 2026.

Why second MLB retirement has ex-Red Sox pitcher at peace
Daniel Bard's second retirement has him feeling at peace. And he took to Instagram to share a lengthy post about his decision. 'I've retired as a player once before. In 2017, I felt chewed up and spit out by the game I had given everything to. I resented baseball. Throwing a baseball hadn't felt like fun in years. Moving on was a massive weight off my shoulders. 'This time, it's different. I couldn't be more appreciative for what baseball has done for me and my family. I found the fun and beauty in the game again. I've made countless friends around the country. I've been able to share the experiences, travel, the highs and lows with Adair and the kids, and they're old enough to remember it this time. I got to pitch in a professional baseball game on my 40th birthday. I've come back from the yips multiple times, been through several surgeries and their rehabs, and I couldn't be more thankful for the whole journey.' 'So here's to the end of one chapter and the beginning of the next. -Bardo' Bard officially retired earlier this month. The former Boston Red Sox pitcher attempted an MLB comeback after he missed the entire 2024 season after he underwent surgery on his right elbow flexor tendon. But whether he was unable to find a team or just felt his recovery didn't have him at 100%, he decided it was best to walk away. Bard spent five seasons with the Red Sox — his last being 2013. He retired in 2018 after a five-year hiatus before the pitcher returned to the mound in 2020 with the Rockies. He spent four seasons in Colorado and was named the 2020 Comeback Player of the Year. In 2023, the last time Bard pitched in an MLB game, he amassed a 4.56 ERA with 47 strikeouts in 50 games.

6 things I've learned in 25 years of food journalism
In 1999, I had a revelation. I was a copy editor at the Boston Globe, angling for a promotion, when I realized that I was getting tired of working in news and needed a change. I bought the book 'What Color Is Your Parachute?,' sat with a pen and paper in hand, and closed my eyes. It was the first of what I expected would be many visualization exercises aimed at finding my calling — imagine you're happy, now imagine you're at work, now imagine you're happy at work! — and it lasted all of 5 seconds.

Coldplay 'kiss cam' moment leads to new resignation
A second executive has resigned from tech company Astronomer following a Coldplay concert video that went viral and sparked online speculation and scrutiny. The company confirmed Thursday that Kristin Cabot, Astronomer's chief people officer, had submitted her resignation. "Kristin Cabot is no longer with Astronomer. She has resigned," Astronomer said in a statement shared with ABC News. Cabot and former Astronomer CEO Andy Byron were identified by online commenters as the two people allegedly caught on video in a "kiss cam" moment on the jumbotron at a July 16 Coldplay concert in Boston. Astronomer CEO steps down after viral Coldplay 'kiss cam' clip, company confirms In the video, which quickly went viral on social media, a man and a woman are seen embracing before quickly ducking out of frame when they appear to realize they are on the jumbotron. Coldplay's lead singer Chris Martin can also be heard in the video providing a play-by-play to the audience of the pair's reactions to being spotlighted on the kiss cam. "Oh, look at these two. All right, come on, you're OK. Uh oh, what?" Martin can be heard saying as the two hide their faces. "Either they're having an affair, or they're just very shy. I'm not quite sure." Neither Byron nor Cabot have commented publicly on the matter. Astronomer announced on July 19 that Byron had resigned from the company in the wake of the viral moment. Tech company Astronomer launches investigation into 'kiss cam' moment at Coldplay concert "As stated previously, Astronomer is committed to the values and culture that have guided us since our founding," the company said in a statement posted on LinkedIn at the time. "Our leaders are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability, and recently, that standard was not met." "Andy Byron has tendered his resignation, and the Board of Directors has accepted," the statement continued. "The Board will begin a search for our next Chief Executive as Cofounder and Chief Product Officer Pete DeJoy continues to serve as interim CEO. We're continuing to do what we do best: helping our customers with their toughest data and AI problems." The day before Byron's resignation, Astronomer, a data company headquartered in New York, had announced that its board of directors had launched a formal investigation into the Coldplay concert incident. "Astronomer is committed to the values and culture that have guided us since our founding," the company wrote in its initial statement. "Our leaders are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability." Solve the daily Crossword
