From a press release:
“Adams Morgan favorite Lapop (1847 Columbia Road NW) — the bohemian, subterranean cultural salon where vintage books, great coffee, yoga and conversation come together daily — will now be open late nights offering an equally unique new cocktail and food menu.
The relaunched 2,200-square-foot space, opening Wednesday, February 20, is located just a flight of stairs away from the elegant Afghan bistro, Lapis (also owned by the Popal family of Cafe Bonaparte and The Berliner) and will now be a standalone venue for cocktails and light fare in the evening. Lapop — “Popal” spelled backwards — pays homage to 19th-century Parisian and Viennese cafes where intellectuals and artists gathered to share ideas over good food and drinks. The space is outfitted with comfortable leather couches, Afghan rugs, warm lighting and an array of books, board games and nooks for those seeking an escape. (more…)

2) What about city trash cans? (more…)

Ed. Note: Self checkout was 86’d back in August 2016.
“Dear PoPville,
I am thrilled to report that the Safeway on [1747] Columbia Road NW has its self checkout lanes back after what feels like ages ago that they were removed. I would think the ridiculously long lines that have been forming every day after work hours helped contribute to the decision to bring them back.”

“Dear PoPville,
We wandered into Seasons and Sessions Sunday night and ended up having the greatest experience. I haven’t been in since it reopened, and we had such a great time that I want to make sure more people give these guys some business. We hung out on the second floor, and had great service from the bartender (Bruno), but especially from the chef, Mo. (more…)

From Roofers Union:
“We are turning 5 this February and throwing a week long party to celebrate! Each day, we will feature a few of our favorite dishes from year one along with a different vintage beer, beginning with a 2013 on Monday through a 2019 on Sunday! These are the most epically exciting beers we’ve been able to stash away since we opened! Additionally, we will extend the cellar list to 100 bottles ~ offering each at half price all week long!
Be sure to join us Sunday, 2/10 for our official Anniversary Party. We will provide some of our favorite snacks from the past 5 years and all draft beers will be sold at $6 (even leftover epic vintage options). We could not have made it to this point without the love and support of our guests, this is our opportunity to show our thanks!
