Penn Quarter – PQ Living reader Nancy alerts us to the fact that the Red Apron Butchery posted coming soon signage on the old Union Hardware building (709 D St NW). They are already regulars at the Penn Quarter Farmer’s Market on Thursdays and are part of the Neighborhood Restaurant Group. Photo is above – the target opening date is in “early 2013.” Thanks Nancy! [Red Apron Butchery website] & [Neighborhood Restaurant Group website]
Penn Quarter – DC Shorts, the annual shorts film festival, starts Thursday here in Penn Quarter. Of note, this year there is a culinary connection and you can find recipes from a few Penn Quarter chefs such as Mini Crab Cakes from Peter Smith from PS7 and Lamb Tartare on Crostini from Ed Witt of 701 on the DC Shorts site.
