My God this place is straight up delicious. You know it’s a good sign when the placed is packed at 2:15pm. And the price point is on point too. My God this place is delicious. The best in the District of Columbia by far. Now open up a few more in D.C., preferably near a metro!

Avocado Cafe. You were a visionary (at least in name.) Feast on this “Average avocado consumption in the United States from 1985 to 2019 (in million pounds per week)”
Alas:

Still open for at least a few more days:

I shall leave you with their last Facebook page post:

A reader reports:
“There’s a company headquartered in my building, Trammell Crow. They’re redeveloping a hospital and the union doesn’t like them so the union paid these protesters to play musical instruments outside my building from at least 8:30am-12:30pm.”

From a press release:
“Sweetgreen, the seasonal, scratch cooking restaurant with a mission of connecting people to real food, today announced its new Georgetown location at 1044 Wisconsin Avenue.
Slated to open early August 1, Sweetgreen Georgetown is nearly 1,700 sq. ft. larger than the brand’s original location on M Street – which opened 10 years ago this August. The added space brings several new features to the Georgetown community, including: mobile + online ordering for easy pickup; a full menu offering to include hot toppings like sesame roasted tofu and curry-marinated chickpeas; two levels of indoor seating + outdoor patio space; and parking – making it even easier to grab lunch + dinner on the go.
