From a press release:
“One year after launching his hit Ethiopian-soul food spot, Doro Soul Food, Chef Elias Taddesse is popping up a new burger concept in the same space in DCs Shaw neighborhood. Mélange Burger brings Chef Taddesse’s beloved burgers back to DC diners with some new twists–and smashes.
Mélange Burger, which opens October 31st at 11 AM, will offer Taddesse’s take on smash burgers, served on fluffy house-baked French milk bread buns. The patties, with names like Le Royale, The Oklahoma, and the McDowell, are made from locally sourced dry-aged beef from Maryland’s Sassafras Farm, which Taddesse grinds and blends in-house.
The burgers are topped with the Michelin-starred chef’s homemade condiments like jalapeño bacon jam, roasted garlic aioli, and butter chive Dijonnaise. (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
The owner of this vehicle on the 1700 block of P St NW says she arrive to find it like this this morning – that someone rammed into it driving it backward up onto the sidewalk and into this tree. Then whoever it was took off. Ugh. She is hoping someone in the area saw something or has surveillance video.” (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
I was just in the Admo/Kalorama Harris Teeter and spotted you – a tall white man in a hat and joggers, perusing the baking aisle around 3pm on a Thursday. I circled back into the aisle a few times but was too chicken to say anything. You seemed to be in the aisle for a while, so I assume great baking plans were in the works. I’m a sucker for a guy who can work an oven so if this is you and you remember a woman in a white cardigan, casually hovering – let me know if you want to grab a drink sometime :)”
