“Dear PoPville,

One of the old pastry chefs that worked at China Chilcano by José Andrés got furloughed and she never got any help from unemployment so she opened her own business. A little taqueria. They’re currently popping up at little beast in Chevy chase with hopes of getting their own space. Her food is delicious. They’re popping up at little beast everyday! And also offering margarita deliveries to the whole dc area!” (more…)

Thanks to Dennis for sending:

“The new 7-Eleven in Mount Vernon Square just opened today and it is fancy! There is a taco bar and instant coffee machines.” (more…)


Thanks to a reader and new Petworth resident for sending me this photo.

She writes: “I just moved to Petworth about 10 days ago, and yesterday I passed the new location for Taqueria Distrito Federal – 805 Kennedy, so a block or so off Georgia. Here’s a picture. I’m excited! Never eaten there before, but it’s just a couple blocks from where I live and on my walk home, so… won’t be long!”


but I had to share with you the greatest tacos I’ve ever eaten in my life. I was a little upset about the pizza controversy so I decided to grab a bite at a place I know we all love. El Limeno on the 200 block of Upshur is the greatest! I had shrimp, steak, and chicken tacos for $8.95 and the service was impeccable. So if you haven’t been to El Limeno yet, you are insane. It is really that good. Unassuming on the outside but ridiculously good food on the inside.
