Eno, which is scheduled to open early this summer in downtown Durham, will serve dishes made from Coon Rock’s meat, vegetables, eggs and milk (including from a cow named Eudora — as in Welty). Toward the end of the meal, diners will be handed a dessert menu and a market menu. Liked the pork chop and Russian kale? Take some home and cook them your way.

Things to do in Boston
I’m planning Dan’s and my trip to Boston next month. We’ll be there for a long weekend, centered around my cousin’s bar mitzvah. I want to take advantage of our free time: a Thursday afternoon, and all day Friday.
