Le Sandwich May Be Closed; Johnny Sanchez to Baltimore

ARLINGTON— It's only been open briefly. But ARLNOW suspects Le Sandwich may have closed. Doors are locked and the logo has been scratched out. [ARLNOW]

BALTIMORE— Baltimore's Horseshoe Casino is getting a new celebrity chef-helmed restaurant from John Besh and Aarón Sánchez. The two will collaborate on Johnny Sánchez, a taqueria. It will be about 6,100 square feet in size and will have seating for 222. [EaterWire]

PETWORTH— Four break-ins were enough for the owners of Fusion Restaurant. Young & Hungry reports the restaurant owners have decided to close due to the crime in the neighborhood. [WCP]

SHAW— Into the mint juleps of the Kentucky Derby, but not so much the horse-racing? Southern Efficiency is the place to go Saturday. They don't have televisions, but the restaurant will have mint juleps on tap, Hot Browns, bourbon balls and well, bourbon. They will announce the winner and possibly play the broadcast on the radio. It all starts at 2 p.m. Those in it to see the pretty hats should probably stay at home. [EaterWire]
