Lagos DC, “serving West African cuisine”, coming to former District Chophouse space


509 7th Street, NW

Earlier this month we broke the news that District Chophouse abruptly closed after 25 years. And now we know who’s taking over the space. The liquor license placard for Lagos DC says:

“The Establishment will be a restaurant serving West African cuisine and creative cocktails, beer, and wine. Total Occupancy Load is

300 with seating for 300 inside the premises. Entertainment Endorsement with Dancing and Cover Charge. Carry-out and Delivery Endorsement.”

Finding a gift for moms can be difficult. Google “Mother’s Day gifts,” and you’ll scroll through endless lists of beauty products, candles and fuzzy robes. Sure, those are sweet, but sometimes it’s fun to surprise loved ones with something a little more, well, practical!

Here’s one idea: Give her a gift certificate for a home cleaning from Well-Paid Maids. It’s the perfect “thank you,” “I love you” or “you’ve got this” for any mom. She can schedule the home cleaning at her convenience and breathe easy knowing she has one less thing to do.

Our cleaners will take care of everything, including vacuuming and mopping as well as cleaning and dusting countertops, tables, mirrors, appliances and more. Sinks, toilets, showers and appliance exteriors also get a good scrub.
