Thanks to C. and N. for sending: “Tigerellas last service was tonight (Friday.) Server said they decided to close Monday”
“It was short lived but did you hear Tigerella in Western Market had their last day of business last week.”
Tigerella wrote on their IG:
“THE TIGER IS ASLEEP. We are very proud of what we did and we could not have done it without our incredible team, the heart and soul of Tigerella.
The lack of workers returning to the offices in our part of downtown DC has made our business model unsustainable. We have decided to pass the torch to an operator who can make it succeed.
Thanks to all who came to Western Market to visit us and our neighbors. Please continue to support small businesses!”

Thanks to Bob for sending: “At last, Foggy Bottom has a Greek place! Alitiko finally opened at Western Market. Good food, too. Try the roast pork.” (more…)

From a press release:
“MRP Realty and Westbrook Partners, along with consultants Cana Development, are excited to welcome The Bussdown, a Pan-African kitchen fusing Caribbean and Cajun Creole flavors, to Western Market this winter.

This time allowed Chef Swoop and Woods to curate the combination of flavors in the exact way they wanted while honoring both of their backgrounds in Cajun Creole Southern and Caribbean. The duo is excited to bring their concept back to their hometown of Washington, DC. (more…)
