1362 H Street, NE

“Dear PoPville,

I was walking home and saw a new sign on the long vacant Kitsuen Japanese restaurant. We have seen a few vacant properties that have been preparing to open to new merchants along H Street NE with renovations, new store front windows, and a new paint job. In place of Kitsuen, it looks like the name will be EV: Ethiopian on H. (more…)



1013 U Street, NW previously home to Lounge of Three

Great news from Everyday People DC:

We’ll have DJ Shindig, Nick Tha 1da, DJ DC Infamous spinning to keep the party going all night long.

We’ll have happy hour specials flowing from 4pm – 7pm, and our full menu will be available. (more…)

Updates from EatDC and Penn Quarter Living: “It’s going to be a wine & spirits shop. UK based.” Berry Bros. & Rudd, “Britain’s original wine and spirits merchant”. Stay tuned for an opening date.

Thanks to D. for sending the signage at the old Foxtrot space:

“Something exciting is coming soon…” (more…)


Two things I never joke about: Avocados and Trader Joe’s so you know I’m serious…

Thanks to Seth for the exclusive:

“the forthcoming Trader Joe’s in Brookland has Avocados. It’s the first food we’ve seen and bodes well for the estimated mid may opening.”

Stay tuned for a confirmed opening date, well I guess it can take avocados a while to ripen, anyway – STAY TUNED.
