Looks like we’re down to zero meatball places. One Meatball Place, the West Main Street spot that served up beef, chicken, and vegetarian meatballs on sandwiches and a la carte, has closed its doors after 15 months of business.

It’s 12:30pm on a Wednesday, and instead of eating a carton of yogurt at my desk while responding to e-mails, I’m sitting on a metal folding chair among about a dozen strangers. My eyes are closed, my hands are folded loosely in my lap, and I’ve been told to focus on my breath, so I’m […]
