3) Logan Circle: Here's some movement on the upcoming Black Whiskey. PoPville reports the restaurant has applied for its liquor license. Black Whiskey is a gastropub from the Kushi team. [PLYWOOD]
4) Logan Circle: Gasp! A chain in Logan Circle. Much to the dismay of several folks on Twitter, Young & Hungry reports Chipotle will open a restaurant at 1508 14th St. NW, sometime later this year. [PRE-PLYWOOD]
5) Penn Quarter: The Shake Shack that is taking over the former Spy City Cafe location is aiming for a summer opening, according to PoPville. [PLYWOOD]
