Here’s what we were reading recently about neighborhood news in DC. Have something to add? Leave it in the comments!
Mount Vernon Triangle – The Walker Jones Community Farm produce stand opened yesterday at New Jersey Ave and K St NW. Fresh, urban produce with an educational mission…fantastic! [The Triangle]
Penn Quarter – Is it better to deploy the food truck first and then the brick and mortar restaurant? District of Pi will open a pizza restaurant in the 900 F block of F St NW but they’ve found great success rolling a pizza food truck on DC streets before the fixed base operation is even open. [WaPo]
Shaw – Rogue 24 restaurant is getting closer to opening. [Renew Shaw]
Penn Quarter – Tom Sietsema puts his official stamp on Fiola, Fabio Trabocchi’s restaurant in the old Le Paradou space. We’ve tried most of their desserts but haven’t had dinner there…yet. We do like the bar. (We also note that Fiola has a new website including a sample recipe!) [WaPo] & [Fiola website veal recipes page]
Capitol Hill – A few suggestions on running routes from our neighbors to the east. [The Hill Is Home]
Downtown – A well written article on the impact of shariah law (or lack thereof) on the City Center DC project. [Washington CityPaper]
All Over DC – The 2011 Capital Fringe Festival is up and running. It runs until July 24. [Fringe Festival website]
Penn Quarter – Part deux on Chris Hansen’s dining at Rasika this spring with a companion. [Washington Examiner]
