2 New Businesses Coming to Arlington

An art/paint eatery and a cake/cupcake shop are coming to Arlington.

Both new ventures are going for operating licenses Monday at the Arlington Board of Selectmen’s meeting (see agenda).

Arlington Art Lounge is planning to move into 1346 Mass. Ave. in Arlington Heights, the former home of the Savory Plate, which closed last fall after about a year and a half in business. The lounge will offer a mix of painting and food, according to the Boston Restaurant Talk blog.

Over in East Arlington, Roselynn Garcia is planning to open The Fashion Cake Boutique at 2 Lake St., which at one time was Kidcasso Art Studio, now in Wakefield.

Garcia has already set up a Facebook page for the shop, and its storefront is coming along.

Arlington Art Lounge has a live but inactive Twitter account, @ArlArtLounge.

Arlington Patch will have more on both new businesses after Monday’s meeting.
