“Dear PoPville,
Here’s the new restaurant that is going right next to the new SweetGreen that is opening on L in between 20th and 19th. A guard said they would be opening in July.”
Energy Kitchen’s Web site says:
We take the guesswork out of eating healthy by offering a completely guilt-free, fail-proof menu. There are no hidden temptations, no hidden calories and, best of all, no regrets. Everything on our menu is grilled, baked or steamed, never fried, and always under 500 calories.
Our grass-fed beef is free range, 90% lean and all natural. All of our buns and wraps are made with whole wheat (not to mention a whole lotta love). Plus, all of our beverages are low calorie, our dressings fat-free and our meals as delicious as they are healthy. Go ahead, dig into a low-fat, high-protein meal that tastes great and that you can feel good about. Serves you right (really, it does!).
You can see their menus here.
“And to the commenter that wanted the Asian “Cousin” sign to be captured before they tore it down, well, here it is.”

Dude, pls give it a rest
Part of the purpose of this project was to return Sherman Ave. to the neighborhood rather...
If you're eating anything besides the oysters at Old Ebbitt, you're doing it wrong.
it looks great now while the median is still green. Check it by next summer and it will...
Love it!
Yummy!! – had one in my neighborhood in NYC – very delish for healthy food and reasonably priced – yay!
… glad there’s something new coming in here: every time I walked by, I thought of a bad date I had there. What a jerk. Oh, and hey: how about all of these super healthy food options by my office?
I hope this is a new trend!
And we need to do something about these dirty Asian cousins. They’ve got to go. I’m gonna say that right now.
wow. how did i miss that glaring grammatical error? I would love to have that sign hanging in my living room (or maybe above my bed).
I walked out of my office and saw someone taking pics, and immediately thought of PoP, but I wasn’t certain you covered the entire DC area. Now I know! BTW, Sweetgreen is poised for a June 1st opening, and I was told that Energy Kitchen would open at the earliest August 1st. So when does the Paul on Conn Ave open?

Aww, you read my “Cousin” comment! Thanks, PoP!
