Back in February we learned that Buredo’s “Burrito-size sushi rolls” was coming to a second location in the former Pinkberry space. The first spot which opened last summer is located at 825 14th Street, NW. I stopped in to inquire about the Dupont space and was told they should be open in “4-5 weeks”. Sweet.
You can see their menu here.

This is the former MIA Lounge, Lupe Mexican Cantina and Sesto Senso space right next to Shack Shake. Eritrean Cultural & Civic Center was previously located at 600 L Street, NW.


Willie T’s closed next to Kramerbooks at 1511 Connecticut Ave, NW back in February. Think they’ll be successful inside The Pizza Studio? Seems a bit random. What are some other co-located businesses around town?
