"Due South, Southeast’s sprawling destination for whiskeys, smoked meats, and Southern comfort foods since 2015, permanently closed on October 27. Due South’s previously announced plans to expand to Chevy Chase recently changed. Per Popville, a bigger upper Northwest location is now set to open in fall 2025. Due South comes from Bo Blair, the prolific D.C. restaurateur who also runs local sandwich shop Jetties and taco stop Surfside." - Tierney Plumb
