Georgia Ave
|
Well a reader couldn’t wait until Monday so here ya go. How was your experience? I didn’t stay for the mud people this year but my favorite part was still the big 18 wheelers filled with speakers. So good. Submit your photos of the parade via email or to the PoPville flickr pool here.
This year the street was more closed off than last year but after a while the barricades were crossed.
I’m not sure what part of the caribbean these folks were representing:
Lot of amazing costumes of course:
Lots more after the jump. (more…)

Just saying…

This one on Georgia Ave made me chuckle a bit. Aren’t all pharmacies professional…?
|
I love this one. Anyone recognize where it’s from?
|
The “U Like” is super fresh.
|
I love the fact that we have a Ed(ddie) Murphy Way. “Now that’s a fire!”
|

“Steaks and other fine foods”. Too good. Too good.

Back in September we spoke about Fusion. I’m happy to report that they have now opened. As you can see from the photo above they are located at 4815 Georgia Avenue (two storefronts from Moroni’s excellent pizza.) I spoke briefly with the owner, Barry, who described the food as “refined Indian”. The restaurant will seat upto 50 people and will feature a full bar. Though, make no mistake this spot is most definitely a proper restaurant. Barry had previously worked in managerial positions in the very well respected Indian Restaurants – Rasika and Bombay Club. I believe that bodes very well for us. I happen to be a big fan of the Bombay Club. It’s exciting to potentially get a spot of the same caliber up in Petworth. I asked Barry, 35, how he decided on this particular location and he explained it simply – “I live around the corner”. In addition to serving lunch and dinner (when they get their liquor license) Sundays will feature a three course brunch.
I’m especially excited about this restaurant because Barry exhibited such enthusiasm for the neighborhood. He also said on a number of occasions that he is “in it for the long haul”. And it was very nice to hear indeed. Be sure to check them out.
