WHEREIN: We bring you the developments (happening in and around D.C.) that we think are newsworthy, or, at the very least, almost newsworthy…
- Washingtonian took a lot of photos this weekend! Check out these photos if you want to see people in mostly boring tuxedos / dresses and click on these photos if you want some A+ style inspo.
- These are all the vanity plates Virginia rejected in 2018! OLDBUTT is such a good vanity plate and I’m so mad they won’t let the person with the old butt have it. There’s nothing wrong with an old butt.
- Even the Metrobuses are celebrating last nights episode of Game of Thrones.
- A group of white nationalists crashed a reading at Politics & Prose.
- And speaking of racist douchebags, a company based in Sterling, VA has apologized after posting a job listing that explicitly claimed they preferred white applicants.
- In more job news, Amazon is hiring, bb.
- Let’s all agree to stay out of caves.
- A restaurant that has the same menu as Taylor Gourmet and is owned by the same person who owns Taylor Gourmet, is opening in the old Taylor Gourmet space on The Wharf.
- And speaking of food, Momofuku debuts a brand new to-go menu.
- Wale and José Andrés have breakfast sandwich hot takes.
- In delightfully straightforward restaurant news, the folks behind Taqueria Habanero opened a bar called Tequila & Mezcal. It serves tequila and mezcal, but wouldn’t it be funny if it didn’t?
- In possibly sad news, Union Square Cafe isn’t coming to D.C. after all and Alba Osteria is closed.
