WHEREIN: We bring you the developments (happening in and around D.C.) that we think are newsworthy, or, at the very least, almost newsworthy:
- AAA is claiming that 1.2 million people will be trying to get out of the city next week. Get hyped for that traffic! (via WJLA)
- And just in case your flying, Eater has a round up of all the best food in DCA, IAD and BWI.
- Ivy and Coney is transforming into a Hanukkah pop-up bar they’re calling Chai-vy and Cohen-y. Hell yes. (via DC Refined)
- A new sports bar is coming to D.C. and it’ll allow you to throw axes. Inside. While you get drunk. I can’t wait to see how that plays out. (via Washingtonain)
- And speaking of booze, The Sovereign is serving up Genever, if you’re looking to take a break from your usual. (via City Paper)
- DC Refined has a fun list of all of the bougiest grilled cheese sandwiches D.C. has to offer. Now I’m going to be thinking of that Barmini grilled cheese all day long.
- Rose McGowan’s weird Virginia drug case has begun. (via WTOP)
- Tony Bennett was in town for the Gershwin Prize last night and damn does that man seem delightful. (via WTOP)
- Metro (and GGW) want to know what Metro should do with its unlimited passes.
- I know July is a long way away, but the folks behind Capital Fringe Festival have already announced that the festival will be moving to the waterfront this summer. (via DC Theatre Scene)
- Your long read of the day is all about D.C.’s line cooks.
