By Prince Of Petworth

“Dear PoPville,

I was walking around Capitol Hill earlier and noticed a sign that Xing Xing, the indoor/outdoor black cat that hangs out at Pete’s Diner, owned by PD’s owner Gum, is missing! This cat is a Capitol Hill institution.”

Update from a twitter reply: “Walked by yesterday and looked like there was construction/painting going on inside. So I’d expect it’s temporary.”

Another Update: “From a 1/29 email: “Ghostburger is offline this week to add a bit of polish in our dining room. Don’t worry though, while we are hard at work in Shaw, you can still order (Delivery / Pickup) your favorite Burgers, Fries, and Wings from our sister restaurant”

Thanks to A. for sending: “Is Ghostburger Okay? Listed as closed every day on their website! Not accepting online orders either!” (more…)
