A Top Ethiopian Chef’s Bougie Fast Food Finds a Forever Home in Shaw | Eater DC

"A planned high-end restaurant slated to open at the end of the year as an anchor of the Bridge District near Anacostia, described as combining contemporary French cuisine with traditional Ethiopian flavors and focusing on product quality, premium sourcing, and presentation. The operator says the same rigor, training, thought processes, and sourcing culture will apply: “The same rigor, the same training, the same thought processes, the same sourcing culture comes in… everything that I try to do,” and adds, “I’m just trying to cook at every level.”" - Lenore Adkins
