Opening alert

Married pastry chefs turned restaurateurs Camila Arango and Tom Wellings are opening their first brick-and-mortar eatery on Saturday, February 3 just down the block from dining hub Union Market. Pluma by Bluebird (391 Morse Street NE), which builds upon on the pop-up bakery the seasoned duo first introduced to the area a few years back, is projected to feature baked goods (croissants, seasonal sweets), coffee, gourmet sandwiches, pizza, beer, and wine.
