"Gordon Ramsay, the boisterous British chef planting a flashy Hell’s Kitchen outpost on the Wharf, will also export his fast-casual Street Pizza chain to Penn Quarter later this year. The London-born pizza project slings bottomless slices in five core varieties (margherita, pepperoni, wild mushroom, eggplant, and corn and chorizo), plus whole and seasonal pies, cocktails, beers, tiramisu, and soft serve." - Adele Chapin
"Punjab Grill has been delivering lunch to homeless people downtown for months. The luxurious Indian restaurant serves langar, a Sikh communal meal typically offered at temples, in Franklin Park. Since March 14th, Chef Jassi Bindra and team have taken fresh meals to Franklin Park nearly every day to serve lunch to 25 to 30 people experiencing homelessness. Preparing the langar meal has been the kitchen’s first order of business each day." - Aparna Krishnamoorthy
