It’s becoming a bloodbath. This is becoming worse than the Quiznos cull of ’14. Thanks to Anita for sending from the “H and north cap location NW.” Updates, as always, when we learn who takes over the space.

Thanks to Allegra Harpootlian for sending: “Good Wednesday surprise: Little Sesame is being built right across the street from my office.”
Back in May we posted some scuttlebutt that a Little Sesame was coming to the former Pidzza space next to the recently opened Spice-6 Indian fast casual in the former On Rye space. Boom!
Little Sesame opened in the the former Veloce space back in late August and have had lines ever since. Check out their menu here and stay tuned for an exact opening date in Chinatown.

Good news for chicken heads. My sources deep in the fast casual chicken world have a juicy tidbit for us today – Chick-Fil-A cometh to 18th Street. I’m hearing 1214 18th Street, NW (near Nando’s buckle up son) and Eighth Street Lounge, Shake Shack etc. It’s not clear exactly which space it’s taking, not sure if the Rabbit Hole fell through or if the Eritrean Cultural & Civic Center is being split. These spaces were formerly home to MIA Lounge, Lupe Mexican Cantina and Sesto Senso
Anyway I give this scuttlebutt an 87% accuracy rating.
STAY TUNED.

Matt Friedman reports yesterday:
“Pizza Autentica on L Street is closed. I saw them taking the sign down yesterday.”
Pizza Autentica opened up on L Street back in 2009.
