Thought you might like this – we got this notice about a movie filming in the next couple weeks on Wisconsin Ave.

Back in February we learned:
“José Andrés’ ThinkFoodGroup is proud to announce that this Summer, America Eats Tavern will return to Washington, D.C., offering guests the opportunity to experience an inventive take on some of the country’s most iconic and historic dishes and drinks, with a spotlight on local and regional flavors. Taking up residence in the former Old Glory Bar-B-Que space, America Eats Tavern will be located in the heart of the historic Georgetown neighborhood at 3139 M Street NW.
In addition to the American classics that guests know and love, Andrés will be introducing barbeque to the restaurant’s menu to add to the culinary experience, as well as a more casual ambiance. Andrés and his culinary team have conducted extensive research to identify the best products available, highlighting local meats, seafood, wines, cheeses, beers and other products from the mid-Atlantic region.”

“New Italian place where on M and 30, Pier 2941 (which closed back in January) and that Vietnamese place (Little Viet Garden space back in 2014) used to be. I actually like what they did with the patio! Good luck to them.”

Official word has finally come down on Dolcezza Gelato’s first location closing for good:
“It’s official, we’ve outgrown our Georgetown store. We started making gelato here in 2004. It’s where we found ourselves, new friends and experimented with flavors and brews. It’s bittersweet that we need more space to grow. Thank you, thank you for 14 years of fun.”
So with sweets on mind – where’s your favorite spot for a sweet after dinner? Hell we’re adults, perhaps your favorite spot for dinner?
