“This corner store is getting a makeover or maybe under new ownership. They’ve been moving furniture and things around for awhile, but I guess they’re redoing the market at 13th and Otis. Will be called “Mood.”

“Dear PoPville,
I’m writing to encourage the community to show some love and support to the owners of Pan Am Fresh supermarket on Brown St. in Mount Pleasant due to the brazen robbery they endured on Tuesday morning. I spoke with a staff member the next day and she said the robber made a beeline for the register and twice pushed the owner down with such force that she was injured and an ambulance was necessary. This and the fact that it occurred in broad daylight is very disturbing. I live nearby and the owners are extremely kind and generous people. Not to mention their Indian cuisine is amazing and they always throw in extra food. If you’re in the area, please be sure to stop by and support this great small business.”

Over the weekend we learned from Jose Andres’ ThinkFoodGroup:
“We will operate “Bodegas” out of our Beefsteak locations in Foggy Bottom and Dupont, adding an additional one at Jaleo DC on Monday.
These markets are intended to connect the community to staple items such as eggs, milk and flour along with household goods like cleaning solutions, paper towels and hand sanitizer, all of which have become scarce during the COVID-19 Pandemic. Beefsteak Bodega items, which will also include produce and fresh-cut vegetables, will be available for pick-up and delivery through our delivery partners from 11am to 5pm daily. Jaleo DC Bodega items will be available on the Jaleo website, for pick-up and through our delivery partners from 12pm to 8pm daily, beginning on Monday.
Thanks to Mark for sharing: “The Jaleo bodega.” (more…)

“Roland’s on Pennsylvania Ave, SE has been purchased by a delightful lady, originally from Lebanon. She has opened a small deli counter, and is offering some middle eastern dishes. She is open to suggestions for things to stock.”
BIG news for West End. Thanks to a reader for sending: “The office building at 25th and M St NW is being renovated and they are adding ground floor retail: a Compass Coffee and Union Kitchen Grocery. The timeline is early 2021.”
