From the food to the staff, there is a global feel inside Dorchester’s Comfort Kitchen that is putting the tiny Upham’s Corner restaurant on the map. From the Nepali milk tea to the top-selling Dreamer breakfast sandwich, chef de cuisine Shelly Nason said the menu celebrates the culture and history of the food along with the staff that can spend hours preparing it. “Overwhelming, but in a good sense of we’re here doing what we have been working for for many years,” Nason said. The global comfort food concept was recognized earlier this year by the New York Times annual “Restaurant List.” “Awed, wowed, wild, excited and also a little sobering in a sense that we’ve done a thing,” Nason said.Dinner reservations tripled the day the article was published. While grabbing a table during café hours is much easier than in the evening, the team is focused on making sure every customer who walks through the doors of the former comfort station is served a meal that reminds them of home – wherever that home is. “If something that we make, something that we create/share makes somebody say, ‘That reminds me of something I had back home, something that I had when I was a kid,’ something, you know, a family member, a mother made, then I feel like we’ve done our job,” Nason said.Comfort Kitchen is located at 611 Columbia Road.
