Judging New Restaurants – Cusbah

By Prince Of Petworth


1128 H Street, NE

Cusbah is located at the corner of 12th and H Street, NE. Their website says:

The Cusbah concept was created on the pretense that a hybrid American South Asian restaurant experience did not exist, at least not in Washington DC. We wanted to create a building block based on authentic Pakistani and North Indian cuisine, while providing an atmosphere rooted in multi-cultural America.

Cusbah literally translates to “little village”

With that translation, we hope to bring that sense of a “little village” or neighborhood bar and restaurant where there’s something for everyone to the ever changing H Street Corridor. Keeping in mind that DC is constantly evolving, we have many ideas and concepts that will hopefully keep us one step ahead of the game. We envision our restaurant to be the place where you grab a damn good Kebab, Curry or Naan and wash it down with a nice cold quality beer or cocktail all while listening to great music.

You can see their menu here.

Any fans? Any must order items?

PoP Pizza Patrol: Red Rocks Coming to H Street, NE

By Prince Of Petworth


1348 H St, NE

Huge news, literally, for H Street. The gigantic space at 1348 H St, NE has been taken over by the great pizzeria – Red Rocks. 1348 H St, NE was originally slated to become Sweet Charleston’s but that fell through and the space went back for lease in June 2012. For those not familiar with Red Rocks:

RedRocks is a bustling neighborhood pizzeria in Washington, D.C.’s Columbia Heights neighborhood, and in Old Town Alexandria.

The food at redRocks is inspired by the pizza from the best pizzerias in Naples, Italy. The menu features Neapolitan inspired, thin crust pizzas cooked in a classic Italian wood-fired brick oven. We cure many of our own meats and make our own sausage. We are committed to using fresh, locally grown produce and hand made cheeses, as well as sustainably raised meats whenever possible.

About 1348 H St, NE – I’m told Red Rocks:

“will be 3 levels, with a rooftop bar/patio seating. roughly 7,000 square feet which should make it the largest restaurant on H St.”

If construction goes according to plan – they’ll open in early spring 2013. Stay tuned!

From an the folks at Boundary Road:

“Boundary Road is teaming up with the makers of Green Hat Gin to celebrate the launch of DC’s first legally distilled liquor. Distilled a mile and a half from Boundary Road, Green Hat is a deliciously smooth, citrusy gin, produced in small batches in a copper pot still. We’ve put together a special cocktail menu for the night, and the distiller will be on hand to chat, answer any questions, and sip a drink or two with you.
