My previous blog post is about comebacks. Addie’s restaurant recently re-opened in a new location in Park Potomac after a four-year hiatus. “Curb Your Enthusiasm” returns to television on October 1. And here’s another return I’m excited about: New Kitchens on the Block (NKOTB).
New Kitchens on the Block (NKOTB) 3.0 takes place at DC’s Mess Hall on Sunday, October 8 with an exciting new line up of chefs previewing their upcoming restaurants. This not-to-be-missed event offers participants a chance to sample signature dishes and drinks from 11 soon-to-open restaurants, all under one roof.
