Last June, we lamented the absence of a traditional German-style beer garden in our fair city. Before long, though, our prayers were answered with the soon-to-open Biergarten Haus in the Atlas District. We have high hopes for the place and expect it to fill a gaping void in DC's beer scene. Taking a survey of the landscape, things [...]
Y&H has already listed his 10 favorite new restaurants for 2009. Now it's time to start pondering the possibilities for 2010. Here's a short list of the upcoming restaurants I'm itching to dine in this year. Galileo III: Can Roberto Donna overcome his dwindling reputation and poor recent track record to reclaim the heavyweight crown [...]

It's hard to read in the picture above, which I snapped yesterday, but underneath the H Street Country Club logo, there's a small oval sign that reads: established 2008. I have just one response: Ha!
