Lots more details for the former Costa Brava space from an email:

“DCʼs Bloomingdale neighborhood will welcome its newest restaurant and bar establishment in the Fall of 2015. CRISP Kitchen + Bar (located at 1837 1st St NW) will feature classic diner and bar fare like Burgers, Hot Chicken, Poutine, House Made Pickles, along with a drink menu of classic and craft cocktails all priced $10 or less!

The newly designed restaurant/bar comes from native Washingtonian Jamie Hess (formerly of Ivy and Coney) with food selections curated by Chef Alex McCoy (formerly of Dukeʼs Grocery) and will be executed by Chef Akiem Brooker (also formerly of Dukeʼs Grocery).

The feel will be of an eatery with an unpretentious feel where customers feel a sense of the community and culture. In addition to handcrafted cocktails, the bar will feature specialty liquors, wines, beers in cans and on tap. We will have low-key soundtrack and two floors with the first for casual dining and the upstairs for sitting at the bar. Both floors offer outside seating/patios. The second floor will also include two
flat screen televisions and a video projection set-up.

“With CRISP, Iʼm excited to create a spot for great food, bar snacks, and cocktails without breaking the bank. The goal is to provide a fun, cozy space with great drinks, food, sports, music, good conversation, all with a mixture of super friendly customers and staff.” – Jamie Hess

We will open daily at 5pm M-F and 11am on S-S.
Happy hour is $5 cocktails/drinks/beers 7 days a week from 5pm – 8pm.”

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!

The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!

What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
