Last week we learned that Cheese Steaks were coming but now we know they will be epic and may or may not contain cheese. Stay tuned for an opening date.

In August of last year we learned that a hair salon would taking over half of the old Mixtec space but we’ve been waiting to see what happens to the other side. A reader reports that a banner is now up for “Great Philly Cheese Steaks”. Updates as they get closer to opening.
Mixtec closed after 40 years back in March 2014.

Doggie Daycare, Doggie Hotel Suites, Grooming, Pet Pencil Portraits, Pet Boutique and a Chauffeur Service.

The best contrasts in DC. Not as good as this former one but pretty close:


Update: Reopened!
Erdem sends the devastating word this morning:
“So’s Your Mom in Adams Morgan on Calvert is closed indefinitely due to food violations.”
Hopefully the issues are resolved very very soon as this place has some of the best and most moderately priced sandwiches in DC. I often rank it in the top 10 “hidden gems” of DC. Praying, yes, praying for a speedy resolution!
