Ed. Note: Hazel first opened in June 2016 and got their first Bib Gourmands from Michelin in October 2017 and got one again in 2018.
From an email:
“We just changed over our menu at Hazel, and announced a new chef, Robert Curtis, who has introduced a decidedly different culinary direction for the restaurant. For one, the dishes skew Mediterranean; a puffed laffa bread is meant to be used as a tool for the rest of the menu, and the majority of dishes are small, shareable plates, with some new family-style options as well.”

“Thought you might also be interested in checking out the new cocktail menu, as that has changed substantially. Spirits Manager Nick Farrell has followed Robert’s lead with a new set of cocktails”: (more…)
The GoFundMe page says:
“Sumah’s West African Restaurant is a long-standing, loving business establishment in the Shaw neighborhood of Washington, D.C. It has been a staple in the DC community for over 20 years.
On Wednesday, November 28th, 2018, a fire broke out and burned the restaurant down. It is by the grace of God that everyone got out alive and the firefighters were able to put out the blaze. While the physical establishment burned down, the love of Mr. and Mrs. Sumah, their family and friends, still stands.
This is a time where we as their community family should stand up, support them and help them rebuild! They share so much love and kindness to others that heals the soul through their food! It is rare to find people who genuinely love to help & bless others simply through their craft of food. (more…)

Thanks to Nate for sending: “Saw some workers milling about this morning and they added a new mural! Wonder if it will be another restaurant haunted by the ghost of Shaw Bijou…”
Back in June we learned the new restaurant would be called Zeppelin from the owners of Chaplin’s down the block.
“A restaurant that will serve Japanese-themed sushi. The licensee is requesting a Sidewalk Café with seating for 60 patrons. They are also requesting an Entertainment Endorsement to provide live entertainment indoors only. Interior seating for 99, with a Total Occupancy Load of 122.”

Thanks to Dave (and Jason) for sending:
“We’ve seen some construction recently in the space that was supposed to be Yard & Toast. Not sure if that was also the one that had its roof cave in a few months ago. Anyway they put up a decorative door the other day so clearly something is in the works. I didn’t notice any change in the paperwork though.”
STAY TUNED.

Damn.
Sumah’s West African Restaurant was gutted by fire last night.
Amazing DCFD response. But the restaurant surely is beyond repair. Were there any fans? Updates when/if we learn whether or not they will rebuild.
