Thanks to Phil for the reminder: “DC folks: we tried Foodhini and it’s REALLY good. Got the chicken gormeh and bolani from the Afghan menu. See for yourself!”

Check out the menus here.

For those not familiar with Foodhini:

“Foodhini was founded on the idea that food can be used to create new opportunities for our immigrant and refugee communities, and also satisfy the appetites of hungry foodies in search of authentic multicultural meals. (more…)



Previously located at 212 7th Street, SE Acqua Al 2 announced their closure in September 2020. Harvest Tide Steak House is coming to this location.

Thanks to Rebecca and Kendra for passing on the good news from Acqua Al 2:

“We are happy to announce that we are open for delivery! You can find your favorite dishes like our Filetto all’ Aceto Balsamico on doordash or grubhub now!” (more…)



“Dear PoPville,

I wanted to share a chat I had with Foxtrot customer service. They just opened their second store in Mount Vernon on Monday (first store in Georgetown at the beginning of March) but they only deliver to NW DC. I live less than a mile away from the new store, in NoMa, but can’t get delivery because I’m two blocks over in NE. Seems pretty ridiculous.”

Upon inquiry I received the following response from Foxtrot via email:

“As we continue to open stores in DC, we plan to have a footprint that reaches all Washingtonians. With that comes looking at expanding our delivery radius to the areas we are able to serve while still meeting our commitment of great, efficient delivery.”

From a press release:

“Locally-based delivery and ordering platform ​DC To-GoGo​ has launched special holiday stores, offering free delivery to anyone in DC on meal packages, charcuterie boards, and cocktail specials from local restaurants. Whether you’re looking for heat-at-home feasts for the whole family, grazing boards filled with curated cheese and charcuterie, or seasonal cocktails to ring in the new year, they have options for you. Customers can bundle specials from different spots together to take care of all their holiday needs, so they can avoid the kitchen (and dishes) on on New Year’s Eve and spend time with loved ones.

Pre-orders are open now in the ​New Year’s Eve To-GoGo ​store for December 31st. All specials can also be ordered on DC To-GoGo’s ​iPhone​ and ​Android​ apps.

From Ivy and Coney:

Ivy and Coney Pauses In-House Dining, Continues Pickup and Delivery

Ivy and Coney, DC’s home for tube meat sandwiches and baseball, ​will be pausing in-house dining for the foreseeable future. ​ We will be serving up dogs and pouring Malort on the deck through this ​Sunday, December 6th​. While the deck is closed, pickup and delivery through DC To-GoGo will continue Thursday to Sunday. So don’t worry, you’ll still be able to get your hot dog and Detroit pizza fix. On top of that, we hope to get a fun market for people to shop online for a variety of local products up and running in time for the holidays (stay tuned!)

No matter what happens, we want to assure folks that Ivy and Coney is not going anywhere. (more…)

Last night Miriam asked: “Um, is anyone else in DC unable to order from IKEA because when you enter your billing address, it says that the District of Columbia is an “invalid input”? I just want some outdoor chairs…”

Many people responded with similar frustrations. I think Nikki B. summed it up best: “#TaxationWithoutHomeDecoration”
