3118 Georgia Ave, NW via Doubles
After speaking about Aurora Market coming to Park View this morning, Cait was wondering what was up with Sonny’s and Doubles nearby on Georgia Ave?
From the owners:
“We’ve been taking a little winter break to give everyone a chance to rest, and to stay safe at home. We’re also doing some work to our Pizza Garden that will allow us to use it year round. Hoping to have Doubles back open in a couple weeks, and Sonny’s not long after that. (more…)

Back in June of last year we learned that a Squisito would be taking over the former Buredo space. You can see other Squisito locations and their menus here. Stay tuned for an exact opening date.

From an email:
“Chef Nicholas Stefanelli and team are excited to launch CODA, a new ghost pizzeria concept out of Officina at the Wharf (1120 Maine Ave, SW.) CODA is inspired by the local corner Italian pizza & sub shop Chef Stefanelli grew up on and worked at, combined with the street food and experiences of his travels throughout Italy- from the Roman Alimentari to the arancini of savia pasteceria in Cataina.

Some had questions whether or not Matchbox was still coming to the former Grilled Oyster space given the closure on 14th Street and other, uh, issues. The new signage just went up so stay tuned for an opening date.

From an email:
“With the Super Bowl coming up in two weeks we here at Bread Furst are testing out the waters on our Pop-up “Alberto’s Pizza”.
In trying to come up with fun ideas for Super Bowl our head baker Ben Arnold wanted to get back to his roots and create a menu of pizza pies for Super Bowl Sunday. Ben’s passion for baking and working with dough began while he was in high school working at a local Pizza shop. With that in mind the pizza menu was a go. Since I was here as well and Ben makes a perfect Philly hoagie rolls for Cheesesteaks, the menu was set.
I have a history of making cheesesteaks and Super Bowl foods having owned Ventnor Sports Cafe in Adams Morgan for more than a decade catering to Philly fans in DC. I’ve dusted off my nacho and wing recipes and I will be manning the kitchen while Ben handles the pizza oven. (more…)
