TaKorean reopening after 13-week closure this Tuesday


1212 4th Street, SE

From TaKorean:

“TaKorean, the DC based restaurant serving Korean & Latin American inspired bowls, salads, and tacos, announces its reopening after a 13-week closure due to COVID-19. TaKorean will open their locations at the acclaimed Union Market and at The Yards in the Capitol Riverfront Neighborhood on Tuesday, June 16th.

TaKorean temporarily closed on March 15th just days before wide-spread stay at home orders went into place across the region. “The safety of our team was the priority in the unique decision not to continue limited operations of take-out and delivery. We have a diverse team which predominantly lives in communities that are disproportionally affected by COVID-19, we felt very uncomfortable about the idea of our people using public transportation, being in the restaurant, and going home to their families – the risk was not worth operating in a world of so many unknowns” says Lenard. TaKorean paid employees over $40,000 in accrued leave in the weeks following the closure, assisted employees with unemployment claims, and other personal issues.

TaKorean will be relying on online ordering for both take-out and delivery which is now available at www.takorean.com. Delivery fees will be a flat $5.95 with no additional service charge or tipping screen. Safety for the team and guests is a critical priority for TaKorean. Information regarding TaKorean’s COVID-19 measures is available at www.takorean.com.”

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!
