Can you name which Salem restaurant served this plate?
ANSWER: This Cubano comes from a new corner of the city's restaurant scene — the just-opened Naumkeag Ordinary. "Ordinary," as used here in its colonial sense, means more or less "pub."

A round up of North Shore restaurant and food news.
When you're looking for a night out and a break from cooking, you might want to know what's new not only where you live, but also in other North Shore communities.

Can you tell which Salem restaurant served this plate? We'll be back with the answer on Monday.
ANSWER: This delicious pulled pork sandwich comes from Scratch Kitchen, where they are big on the pig. I'm a native North Carolinian, so I do take my 'cue very seriously. The Scratch Kitchen pulled pork sandwich is as good as I've had anywhere in the Boston area.

Here's our round up of the area's latest food news: In the Witch City, new restaurants are going in on the same corner at Essex and Washington. Already open is Naumkeag Ordinary, a pub that's opened in the previous Cafe Polonia spot. A warm-looking bar greets you as you come in. Round the corner and you'll see the renovations underway at the old A Taste of Thyme. That spot will reopen as Medusa's Cafe. We continue our fascination with that stretch of Danvers with all the fast food joints — Wendy's, Burger King, Taco Bell and newish addition McDonalds — right in a row. We asked …
