"Planned to open in Kenmore Square in the space currently occupied by Scoozi at 580 Commonwealth Ave., Boston, Shu DaXia is a Chengdu-based hot pot chain from Sichuan province that operates franchises in Australia, Japan, and Malaysia along with company-owned locations in China; the planned Boston site appears to be the chain’s first American expansion. Its online menu includes items such as pork ribs, tripe, goose intestine, and shaved beef, though it’s unclear what will feature on the Kenmore Square menu. Scoozi is petitioning the city to transfer its liquor license to Shu DaXia, and the licensing board will approve or deny that petition when it meets on November 20." - Terrence Doyle
