Thanks to Gaurav Arora for passing on the news from Righteous Cheese:

After 5 wonderful years at Union Market getting our footing in the cheese biz, Righteous Cheese is hitting the road!

We have moved out of DC and, in Spring 2018, will be opening a traveling cheese bar based in Charlottesville, VA. You can find us serving up our renowned, curated artisanal cheese plates and raclette at residencies in partnership with area wineries and breweries; at events and music festivals across the region; you can book our traveling cheese bar for your own parties and weddings; and you can even sign up for our ever-popular cheeses classes – this time all across the region. Check back on this site, our instagram feed and our newsletter to stay posted on all the haps.

In the meantime, we are excited to announce our new concept at Union Market – ooey gooey crispy ! (more…)

Blue Bottle‘s first D.C. location opened up in Georgetown over the summer and in addition to Union Market there are plans for The Wharf, Union Station and Logan Circle.

From an email:

“I wanted to make sure you were aware of this holiday pop up shop, Brief Assembly., that opened in the Union Market district on the corner of 4th and Neal. It launched this past weekend and runs through Dec 23, and there is an opening party this Tuesday evening from 6-9pm. The shop was organized by two DC-based designers, Carolyn Misterek and Mallory Shelter. It features products from select and independent designers from across the country. It is a real cool shop, and offers people a different place to shop during this holiday season.

Brief Assembly.
1287 4th Street NE

On Tuesday, November 28, Brief Assembly will officially kick off the holiday shopping season with our grand opening celebration! We’ll have a Tattly Tattoo parlor, live printing from local letterpress studio Typecase Industries, a photo booth, and cocktails from Republic Restoratives. We hope you can join us!”
