@DiningBisnow tweeted some very interesting news last night:
“The very talented @mixtressdc is leaving @PS7sdc, but she tells us she’s got a new “cocktail deli” in the works at 6th and Penn SE”
I’m wondering if 6th and Penn Ave, SE is referring to the former location of Ba Bay which closed in Nov. ’11 at 633 Pennsylvania Ave, SE? Whether it’s that location or another nearby – I can’t wait to learn more about at “cocktail deli”.

From Pound The Hill (621 Pennsylvania Ave, SE):
Pound The Hill is finally launching our new bistro & wine bar concept in the evenings starting Thursday, at 5pm. It’s the same space but we’ve reworked it for the evenings, altered the atmosphere for an upscale casual bistro, hired a fantastic chef (Jonathan Taub) who was previously the sous chef at Art & Soul and Station 4 and hails from Philly, and have worked with several local boutique wine distributors and beverage directors to develop a really strong and unique craft beer and wine program.
Our food concept takes what we’ve always done for breakfast and lunch and applies it to dinner while taking it up several notches – food inspired by our favorite cuisines around the world. Our menu is meant to be kept compact and will feature changing specials from various regions of the globe frequently.
While we using the same space and will be maintaining the same neighborhood vibe, this new concept is significantly different from our current daytime concept and requires us to close for 1 hour for transition. Pound The Hill’s cafe closes at 4pm each day and the bistro opens at 5pm.
Our new bistro hours are Sunday through Thursday 5pm to 10pm and Friday & Saturday 5pm to 11pm (bar open until 12am).
You can see their new dinner and drink menus below:

Looks like the arrival of Boxcar Tavern at 224 7th St, SE by Eastern Market has sparked a Bloody Mary battle with neighbor Tunnicliffs. Any volunteers to do a taste test?
