Trump Must Appear in Court over Zakarian Lawsuit; Tasty Burger Inches Closer

LAWSUITS— Sorry, Donald Trump. If you're going to sue a chef for pulling out of your hotel project, you are going to have to show up for the court proceedings, so ordered a local judge. [WBJ]

THE CRITICS— A reader in this week's Tom Sietsema chat this week shared a fairly horrifying anecdote (if true). A local restaurant allegedly gave his or her contact information to a disgruntled restaurant worker, who started sending harassing text messages claiming they were fired on account of the person's complaint.

EXPANSIONS— "Late spring" is the target for the Tasty Burger location opening in D.C. The Boston-based burger chain is headed to Shaw. [Boston Mag]
