Chix Gets Its Sidewalk License Approved

DSCN1593

I just got word that Chix on 11th Street just north of U has received their patio license for outdoor seating. So starting late this week you’ll be able to eat your chicken and drink your beer and wine outdoors. This is great news. More reasons why 11th Street is the new best street in the city. And they also have happy hour!

This Saturday (August 2th) will be DC’s 9th Annual Dog Days Sidewalk Sale where they will have happy hour food and drink specials from 12:30 to 5:30 and an outdoor jewelry sale by three great local artists: Marcela Villanueva, Claudia Carpio and Carla Carpio.
