Brassier Bar Opening Soon On K St NW (at 11th St) *Updated*
Becca wrote in with the following exciting information:
There is a new bar that is now hiring (through craigs list I believe, there is a sign on the window) on 11 th and K NW called Brassier Bar. It is on the corner of a building they have finally finished re-facing. Opposite the corner of the old Hertz building. They have taken the paper off the windows, white marble bar with lots of Brass. It looks nice.
Update:
DCist had the scoop a few weeks ago:
New Brasserie Beck-ons
Also among that crop is the highly anticipated Brasserie Beck, chef Robert Wiedmaier’s latest venture. According to an ad on Craigslist.com (the restaurant is hiring a General Manager), the eatery will be a “traditional Belgium Brasserie” (not unlike Wiedmaier’s current domain, Marcel’s, which features the French-Belgian fare that won Wiedmaier the 2003 Chef of the Year award from the American Culinary Institute). The ad also indicates that Brasserie Beck is slated to open in April of 2007 on 11th and K, in the gentrifying-as-I-type neighborhood surrounding the new Convention Center.

I think this may be referring to Brasserie Beck. From Metrocurean:
Brasserie Beck
1101 K St. NW
Chef Robert Wiedmaier (Marcel’s) will open a second restaurant that will showcase Belgian cooking. Expect a more casual vibe and softer prices than the older sibling.
