New management at New England's only Lee's Sandwiches location

The Lee’s Sandwiches location at 68 Stafford St., Worcester, recently transitioned to new management just ahead of the busy holiday rush. Located in the Webster Square Plaza, the business is part of a growing number of casual eateries anchoring the area. The corporate-owned/operated store has introduced a new leadership team, led by acting manager Daniel Fuentes of Southbridge. Tracey Pham of Worcester and siblings were franchise owners who opened the quick-service restaurant at Webster Square Plaza in August 2025. Family members have stepped away to focus on their individual career ventures. Lee’s Sandwiches is a West Coast family-owned Vietnamese-American fast-casual chain famous for its banhi mi Vietnamese-style sandwiches. The Worcester store is currently the company’s only New England location. Fans of the signature sandwiches, house-made baquettes, croissants, all-day breakfast sandwiches, signature Lee’s iced coffees, appetizers, pastries, etc., can rest easy as Fuentes confirms they will remain. Customers also stand to benefit from a few price drops. A new express counter includes pre-packaged treats and to-go items like canned condensed milk. “It’s all about saving our customers time and fitting their needs,” said Fuentes. “Convenience.” The Vietnamese ice-coffee menu here is extremely popular, according to Fuentes. The store also serves brewed

The Select Board has appointed the 76-year-old Moultonborough, New Hampshire, resident as interim town administrator. His contract was signed Oct. 29, and he began work this week. He will serve through June 30, 2027. Select Board Chairman Jeff Bennett said Terenzini’s previous experience in Templeton should allow him to get up to speed quickly. “Mr. Terenzini has an intimate familiarity with many of the Templeton staff, boards and commissions and issues from his prior service to the town,” Bennett said. “The board agreed this could help ensure a relatively smooth transition into the organization for him and the many challenges we now face as a community.” A familiar face in several communities Terenzini initially came to Templeton as interim town administrator in August 2016. What was expected to be a short-term assignment ultimately lasted more than four years as the town dealt with serious financial problems, including several years without completed audits and state oversight. He remained until November 2020, when Assistant Town Administrator Adam Lamontagne succeeded him. Since retiring from full-time municipal government, Terenzini
