From a press release:

“Short Eats announces the launch of its pop-up breakfast café at Ten Tigers Parlour, located at 3813 Georgia Ave NW. The location is one block from the Petworth-Georgia Avenue Metro Station.

Starting Monday, May 8th and on weekdays 7:00-10:00AM, Short Eats is offering a breakfast version of its street food roti pockets in vegetarian and meat options with poached eggs. Local partner Compass Coffee will also be sold. Both carry-out and in-house eating are welcome.

“Short eats are an everyday staple in Sri Lanka. I’m excited to introduce DC communities to our culture’s food. My family has been cooking rotis, curries and diverse Sri Lankan dishes using our home-grown spices from the island for years,” stated Yohan Ferdinando, Co-Founder of Short Eats and former Operations Manager of food delivery startups Postmates and Favor.

Union Kitchen member Short Eats further plans to launch a full catering menu at the Petworth Community Farmers Market starting May 13 through November. Roti pockets and curries will be sold every Saturday 9:00AM-1:00PM at the corner of Georgia Avenue and Upshur Street.

On Saturday May 6, Short Eats will also be at the Funk Parade offering Sri Lankan native-spice curries bowls and its signature pol sambol near Howard Theater throughout the day starting at 12p/noon.”

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!
