Pour one big ol’ beer out
Hunan Number One, a Chinese and sushi restaurant in Clarendon known for daily deals on food and drinks, announced on social media yesterday that it will close Monday, August 12. Fittingly, the post included a picture of a liter mug of beer, which is also in the restaurant’s logo. According to its Facebook post, the restaurant has been open since 1987.
We are sad to announce, Hunan Number One is closing its doors on Monday, Aug 12. It has truly been our honor and privilege to serve you, and we extend our heartfelt gratitude and thanks to all our loyal and faithful customers. Come join us now through Sunday for a final farewell. pic.twitter.com/hCb4R5y6ey

More international flavor
Foodhini, the local delivery service that partners with immigrant and refugee chefs, is expanding its service area to include Takoma Park. The company already delivers to D.C. and Arlington. Eater profiled Syrian chef Majed Abdulraheem, who opened the Foodhini pop-up in the Foggy Bottom Whole Foods, earlier this year. [Popville]

Extravagant brunching
The Uncaged Chef pop-up that serves Sunday brunch out of Rosebuds BBQ in Capitol Heights, Maryland, just branched out. Washington City Paper reports that chef Damian Brown, who has spent time at Vidalia, Fiola Mare, and the Blue Duck Tavern, is starting a second brunch pop-up serving dishes like fried chicken with sweet potato pie waffles at Fast Eddie’s in Camp Springs, Maryland.
