    There's one in the Brewery complex in JP called Crop Circle Kitchen.

      I can't recall the name but there is at least one more of these facilities - I've seen it on TV and saw it mentioned in an issue of Edible Boston a few years ago.

        You may be thinking of Nuestra Culinary Ventures - I recalled reading about them some time ago as well. Crop Circle actually took over their operations in 2009.

            There's a group with plans to start up a Cambridge one, but apparently they don't have space yet. http://www.cambridgecommunitykitchen.org

              That is the group I am aware of- they are hard at work to make it happen.

      No idea if this is being done here, but what a great idea!
