After 12 years, Tutto Mondo in South End is closing its doors ... but don't worry, Pewter Rose is keeping its doors open. And you know what they say, when one door closes another one opens ... and re-opens. The new place opening soon after Tutto Mondo closes will be very similar. Stay tuned for details.

The Final Night — The infamous “That Guy Smitty” starts the night, with TRIFECTA (Suspence . Sasha Taylor . Levi Brown) shutting the place down. Literally.
Last Friday night after a long week, I found myself sitting in my house whining ... to myself. I wanted to complain that I had hours of work left on a Friday night and the Internet had gone down in my house — then I remembered I have a job and house, so I shut up. But even still, the little stressors in my life were attacking my mind like a parasite, eating my positive thoughts and laying eggs of self-doubt. Don't you hate it when that happens?
So I figured that in order to stop whining, I should just go get some wine ... it hasn't yet been FDA-approved, but I hear it's a good medicinal remedy against bad moods.
So I went to check out Yn Café in Dilworth, where the element is wine.
It's a hole in the wall — not that it’s not nice, but it is literally a hole in the wall. It’s like 131 Main’s secret wine cellar. With its dark wood, dark lighting, and discrete ambiance, it's a good place to take someone you don’t really want to be seen with — like an Ashley Madison date or something. But it’s also a good place to go for an innocent low-key relaxed night, or in my case, a place to whip out the laptop secluded from Internet, drink wine and work on my book in a venue as cozy as my own living room (with a much more extensive wine rack).
