500 H Street, NE

A couple weeks ago I feared Micho’s wasn’t coming back because no renovations had started since they closed back in November. Looks like the sea may be parting right before our very eyes – thanks to Christian for sending:

“Looks like they may actually be doing renovations…new concrete pavers on the patio & lots of new equipment in the interior”

Updates as they get closer, knock wood knock wood, to reopening.


From MPD:

“Detectives from the Metropolitan Police Department’s Fifth District seek the public’s assistance in identifying several suspects in reference to an Assault with a Dangerous Weapon (Gun) offense that occurred on Wednesday, March 21, 2018, in the 1500 block of Benning Road, Northeast.

At approximately 5:40 pm, the victim was at the listed location when he was struck by gunfire. The victim was transported to a local hospital for treatment of non-life threatening injuries.

The suspects were captured by a nearby surveillance camera and can be seen in these photos and in this video above.

From an email:

“Toki Underground, DC’s first ramen house, located on H Street, NE, will soon launch a new menu available exclusively at the Pug, the popular DC bar housed on the ground floor of the building that Toki calls home. Many Toki patrons enjoy a drink at the Pug while waiting for a seat at the popular, yet small, ramen house and this new food menu offers a selection of small bar bites inspired by the flavors of Toki’s full menu. The menu, highlighted below, was designed for those enjoying a drink at the Pug or for Toki guests who want a few bites while waiting for a seat upstairs. There are a variety of snacks, many of which are vegetarian or can be made vegetarian, like the Fried Chicken or Cauliflower Steam Buns. Also on a the menu is Uncle Tony’s Lumpia, an eggroll popular in the Philippines. The lumpia is a special nod to Tony Tomeldon, owner of the Pug, who is of Filipino descent.

The menu, found below, launches at the Pug next week Wednesday, March 14. (more…)
