Sook - Review - Shaw - Washington DC - The Infatuation
"Compass Roseis now Sook, an all-day cafe and wine bar serving breakfast khachapuri loaded with cheese, za’atar, and eggs. You can pair it with specialty drinks like a ginger tamarind espresso tonic or a matcha rose latte, both of which seem specifically engineered to make mornings feel less bleak." - Omnia Saed
The D.C.-Area Restaurant Openings You Should Know About This November | Eater DC
"A more grown-up evolution of Compass Rose, this all-day cafe and wine bar in the same historic townhouse now opens with a limited breakfast menu and an all-day menu coming in December. It’s designed for grab-and-go coffee or pastries, a casual bar hangout, a workplace, or a quick bite anytime, with traditional Lebanese breakfast options like za’atar toast, pistachio buns, labneh yogurt with granola and apricots, and a platter of feta, manoushe, Persian cucumber, and tomatoes served on labneh. More American-leaning choices include a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich and an everything-spiced croissant, complemented by a Lost Sock Roasters coffee program featuring a fig leaf latte and ginger tamarind espresso tonics; for now, hours run 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. daily." - Emily Venezky
