Jody Adams, Eric Papachristos and Sean Griffing opened their new restaurant — Porto — Monday evening. It’s located on Ring Road in the Back Bay, next to Saks Fifth Avenue. . . . The Beach Boys enjoyed dinner at Abby Lane between their matinee and evening shows at the Wilbur Theatre on Saturday. . . . More than 200 people traveled to Mashpee this weekend (some by helicopter — the best way to avoid Cape traffic) to celebrate summer with David Southworth. We hear that the president and CEO of Southworth Development hosted quite the soiree, and notable guests included former welterweight boxing champ Kip Diggs, former WCVB-TV anchorSusan Wornick, “Still Alice’’ author Lisa Genova, Suffolk County District Attorney Daniel Conley, Judge Ken Fishman, Kevin Ahearn of Otis & Ahearn, Emily Rooney of WGBH, and Chris Collins of NECN, among many, many others.
