Thanks to Shawn for sending the photo above and asking for an update on the Due South that was coming to Chevy Chase in the former Organic Wine spot. Well I finally got the scoop on what’s going on. I spoke with owner Bo Blair yesterday who tells me that Due South has been scrapped but since they were able to get this larger space a whole new restaurant has been planned and it will be called Wheelhouse!!
While the menu will be different, Blair tells me “Wheelhouse will bring to Chevy Chase what Millie’s did for Spring Valley.” (more…)

From the Good People of Ivy & Coney:
“I was going to write my usual funny (or mildly chuckle-inducing) message to you. But honestly, times are tough these days and real harm is being done to our community, especially those of us that are black and brown. The city has been resilient, the people are protesting, and hopefully we’ll all survive these troubled times.
In order to not let the bastards beat us down, the race must go on. This coming Monday, we’ll be doing it up as we have these last three years. There will be stupidity, there will be fun, there will be drinking, and, of course, hot dogs. Hopefully, there won’t be any federal goons.
FYI: $5 of every ticket goes directly to our friends at Bread for the City. Their work is more vital than ever.
