From a press release:
“Maki Shop will close the doors of its retail location this month but that doesn’t mean its fans will have to say sayonara to their beloved Asian-inspired bites – in fact, your favorite maki hand roll may more accessible than ever.
Since launching in 2015, the brand’s Japanese fare has become a favorite of heath-focused Washingtonians and foodies alike. The recent success of their hand rolls being sold at places like Compass Coffee coupled with some new partnerships convinced co-owner Todd Ciuba that it would be best to shift away from retail. (In addition to Compass Coffee, select Maki Shop products are currently available at Union Kitchen Grocery, Georgetown University and NPR’s Sound Bite Café.)
The decision to close the brick and mortar store was a strategic one that will allow the Maki Shop’s owners to focus on and embrace the widespread demand for their products in a different way. The portability and affordability of the brand’s most popular items – the maki hand rolls – are an ideal match for wholesale distribution.
In addition to increasing their presence in grocery stores, coffee shops and boutique food retailers, Maki Shop may soon be popping up in vending machines, movie theaters and ballparks, thanks to some new and evolving partnerships. (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
Was wondering if there is any intel on the former LuLulemon space at 1461 P street NW. That whole block is looking a bit sad, having had Pitango gelato replaced with a cellphone store, LuLulemon leaving a vacancy, and now RIP Tortilla Coast. Very strange considering what a ‘hot’ block it is.
Hoping it doesn’t become YET ANOTHER real estate brokerage office….”

From a press release:
“Today, the owners of Dacha Beer Garden announced a major revision in plans for a second bar and restaurant venue to be located at the southwest corner of 14th and S streets in northwest D.C. The venue is planned for one of the few remaining undeveloped parcels along the bustling commercial corridor recognized as among the city’s most vibrant areas.
The updated building design was posted online today by Dacha proprietors Ilya Alter and Dmitri Chekaldin in their months-long effort seeking approval of a pending liquor license application. The D.C. Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) Board will consider the proposal in the coming weeks. A prominent component of the new design is a significantly expanded enclosed interior space. Nearly two-thirds of the total occupancy is now enclosed in response to concerns about noise. (more…)
