Update to the Update: “all customers have been restored.”

From Pepco:

“Pepco crews are responding to an issue at our substation on 22nd Street NW in Washington, D.C. To prevent further equipment damage, about 1,800 customers in the Dupont Circle and West End areas were impacted. Pepco crews continue to make progress and have restored approximately 1,600 customers and working safely and as quickly as possible to restore the remaining impacted customers.

The Pepco underground system is a series of feeder cables that connect each substation to provide energy service to our customers. In this case, equipment issues are affecting the path between Takoma Substation and the 22nd Street Substation. (more…)

Thanks to Emma for sending:

Lalibela has moved from Logan Circle to Petworth! (The waitress confirmed it’s the same business.) Prices are very reasonable and the food is good, I got the meat & veggie sampler and it was $18 and more food than I could finish. (more…)

From I.M.P.:

“Night after night, The Anthem fills The Wharf with fresh beats, having hosted nearly 3 million fans since it opened in 2017. But for its latest release, The Anthem and its kitchen partners at Eco Caters are bringing something new: fresh frites! Eco Caters serves both artists backstage and fans at concessions at The Anthem, and, starting today, artists, fans, friends, and passersby alike are in for some good eats with the all-new Frites and Greet stand, located just across the walkway from The Anthem, by District Pier.

Each order comes with one free housemade dipping sauce with uniquely musical takes on classics, like Mean Mr. Mustard, Smoke On The Water, or Ranch Against The Machine. With seven different sauces* to choose from, it’s okay to get lost in the sauce, as each additional flavor is only 75 cents. The final piece of the puzzle? Pair the frites with one of three different housemade sparkling lemonades (strawberry, mango, or blackberry) to stay refreshed despite the sweltering summer sun. (more…)

“Dear PoPville,

Any idea of the new-ish Pupatella is already closed (and why?)? There is a big orange “danger” sign posted on the door and the inside has that hastily abandoned restaurant look. The building has been cursed as a high turnover location, so I was surprised to see a legit restaurant move in – was hoping for a turnaround.”

On June 17th there was a fire. DC Fire and EMS had reported: (more…)
