From a press release:
“The team at Colada Shop is proud to announce the opening of Colada Shop in the District Wharf, a concept that has captured the hearts of Washingtonians by blending together the contemporary lifestyles of the city with the Cuban traditions of starting and ending the day. Paying homage to this Caribbean way of doing coffee, food, cocktails and social lifestyle, Colada Shop is a casual café and eatery where guests come for the quality of offerings and the unmatched hospitality. The third location of Colada Shop will open the first week of July, at 10 Pearl St SW, Washington, D.C.
“We are beyond excited to come to the District Wharf -one of D.C.’s most exciting neighborhoods”, said Daniella Senior, CEO of Colada Shop. “This new outpost will bring a more dynamic interpretation of our sister locations, but will have the same energy, vibrancy, and – of course – incredible Cuban bites and drinks.”
Seating 45 guests indoors and additional 40 patio seats , guests will be able to delight in an ingeniously crafted menu by Executive Chef Mario Monte and an exceptional beverage program conceived by Daniella Senior & Juan Coronado. (more…)

We are in uncharted waters but we know we need to stay home. I've gotten so many reports of people partying. This is not a drill. We do what we have to do or people will suffer and some will die. There is no nuance. Don't be an asshole. You can do it.

Thanks to Todd (and others) for sending this upsetting scene Saturday (on top of all the reports of parties I received):
“I was out running and saw this (above Saturday) around 430 (from a distance)”
Nikki reports: “The mayor shut it down this morning till 4/24 however business can apply for a waiver of that if they present a social distancing plan.” (more…)
