The Other Downtown Holiday Market
Where does the time go? Back in October 2007 we wrote about Cafe Mozart, the fun German restaurant/bar/deli at 1331 H ST NW. Somehow we never made it back as often as we intended, just once or twice a year, usually for a liverwurst sandwich to-go from the deli. The place is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, 7 days a week; but it had easily been 8 months since we’d last stepped foot in the place, with no good reason for the delay. Cue Mrs Columbo on Saturday saying that she would really like to have lunch at Cafe Mozart, and we discovered the holiday fun in the general store portion of this shop & restaurant.
You don’t need a drink to enjoy the holiday shopping in Cafe Mozart, but it doesn’t hurt either. Filled with lots of German (and German-esque?) treats, you can find such items as a chocolate filled Advent calendar, frosted gingerbread, cinnamon cookies, chocolate Santas, and the like. The Cafe Mozart store also sells a variety of baking mixes, pickles, jams, pastries, meats, and cheeses.
None of this is meant to take away from the Downtown Holiday Market on F Street NW, between 7th and 9th, we love that market and how festive the neighborhood becomes this time of year when it opens. But if you didn’t know, or like us you had neglected to stop by for far too long, Cafe Mozart has been composing holiday spirit in our area for longer than most of us have lived here.
