Yesterday we learned that the Uprising Muffin Company was closing their brick and mortar location outside the Shaw metro at the end of the month. I have now learned from a very good source (92% accuracy rating) that an &pizza will be taking over the space. If true – good news or bad news?

From a press release:
“Monday, July 16 marks the opening of REWIND, a diner, and entertainment venue in the heart of the Nation’s Capital at 1219 Connecticut Avenue, NW that takes a new twist on classic American food and entertainment experiences.
REWIND is the latest venue from nightlife curator Antonis Karagounis and his business partner Arman Amirshahi. The venue joins their successful spaces including world-renowned Echostage, fast-casual eatery Taqueria Local and stalwart D.C. hotspots Soundcheck, Ultrabar and Barcode. Regarding his latest concept, Karagounis notes, “People have loved coming to DECADES to relive their youth through music and drinks so we thought we should include food in that walk down memory lane, too, and that’s when REWIND was born.”

Eggs Benedict, waffles, and omelets are the cornerstone of the kitchen’s all-day breakfast service. The menu also features a full slate of fresh, comfortable options including Thanksgiving dinner served all year long, hamburgers, hot dogs, chicken wings, submarine sandwiches, and more. Furthermore, dessert platters and spiked “boozy” milkshakes are additional menu features. (more…)

From Sweetgreen:
“The original Sweetgreen shop on M Street will return later this summer, bringing with it some of the area’s best produce from local farm partners and, wait for it… Sweetflow, the brand’s beloved fro-yo.
The Tavern, as it will be called, where the brand started over a decade ago, will be a wholly new concept for the brand. (more…)
