Georgetown

From a press release:

“Expect a modern Mediterranean experience with a speedy line, nutritious options, exceptional service, and major value. The eatery dishes out casual, tasty and healthful Mediterranean cuisine, known for its abundant use of olive oil, vegetables and legumes. Emphasizing robust flavors, Roti serves freshly-cut, fire-roasted meats, traditional side dishes such as falafel and hummus, and classic favorites like the Chicken Roti Sandwich and the Mediterranean Chopped Chicken Salad. Roti also extends goodwill to customers with loyalty programs, and supports the nonprofit Common Threads, an organization whose mission is to educate children on the importance of nutrition and physical well-being through cooking.

Roti is located at 1275 First Street, NE, in NoMa’s Constitution Square, between Tynan Coffee & Tea and Potbelly Sandwich Works, which both opened last fall.”

From the Georgetown BID:

“On Thursday, March 3, 9am, Georgetown welcomes its newest addition to cupcake mania, Sprinkles Cupcakes (3015 M Street, NW). Be the first in line to satisfy your sweet tooth with renowned, Hollywood-famous cupcakes from what Food Network describes as “the world’s first cupcake bakery.”

I’ve started to get a lot of emails about this:

Missy Frederick and Danielle Douglass wrote about it back in Sept. ’10. From the Post:

“To be nestled in the unofficial home goods section of the neighborhood, the store will fill some 13,000 square feet at 3307 M St., across from BoConcept, Pedini DC and Contemporaria. Similar to its posh neighbors, CB2 offers contemporary designs that are a tad edgier than those of its big sister, Crate & Barrel.”

CB2 will be opening in April 2011 at 3307 M St, NW.

Based on my emails folks are getting pretty excited about this. Are there lots of CB2 fans out there?

Sprinkles Cupcakes is coming to 3015 M St NW. Their Web site says that cupcakes cost $3.25 each or $36 for a dozen. For the cupcake fans out there – is that about the going rate?

They plan on opening up in Feb. ’11.
