“Dear PoPville,
When &pizza was building out their very first place on H Street NE, they were about to throw the old Birdland sign from the previous restaurant that had been at that location right onto the trash truck. I stopped them and asked if they would haul it to a vacant lot owned by friends until we could find a way to save it for posterity. (more…)

That was fast. Barred in DC notes “Beetle House lasted less than 3 months in business.” BeetleHouse’s website succinctly says: “Our Beetlehouse DC location is closed for business.”

UPDATE: This is huge news that I need people to know!! Unfortunately the owner of Bombay Street Food contacted me and said a BSF is not coming to this location. However, he’s bringing a Butter Chicken Company 2!! Scuttlebutt confirmed from the owner:

Stay tuned for an exact opening date.

Thanks to Steve for sending. Looks like that’s all she wrote for the Red Boat as their phone has also been disconnected. They only opened up here back in January 2019. Previously this was home to Micho’s. Updates, as always, when we learn what becomes of the space.

Wild, I had no idea. Thanks to Jason for passing on from Complex:
“Pusha-T is stepping away from the studio for a bit to try his hand in the food industry.
The DAYTONA rapper announced Monday that he’s teaming up with D.C. nightclub owners Wayne Johnson and Tony Perry to open up a ramen and craft cocktail bar called Kitsuen in the nation’s capital. After several setbacks, the high-end spot is set to open on New Year’s Eve in Washington’s burgeoning H Street Corridor.”
