We’re sorry for the unscheduled hiatus of the Weekly Feed last week. We would like to take responsibility for it, truly, but instead we must give an excuse. You see, the Feed was nowhere to be found when the curtain went up. It turns out it went on a weeklong bender with Eating In. They tried to take a road trip to Las Vegas, but turned around in Chillicothe when they ran out of ether and cupcakes. We’ll keep a tighter rein on them in the future.

Sun Rising on Englert Empire
It looks like East Hillizens, Trinidadians, and Gallaudet students won’t have too far to go to get rocked on a weekend. Bar-owner extraordinaire Joe Englert appears to be putting the finishing touches on a few more places along H Street NE — a once-hopping avenue that is trying very hard to make itself the new hotness. Trinidad blogger Frozen Tropics tips us to the fact that The Rock and Roll Hotel, a live-music venue, is set to open in March or April. There are also rumblings that his other places like the Red and Black with a Cajun theme, the sports bar Olympic, Mexican restaurant The Beehive, Dr. Granville Moore’s europub, boxing-themed The Pug (disturbingly pronounced “puge”), and The Showbar with its burlesque dancing are soon to open as well. We’ve mentioned the development in the past, but are glad to see that things keep moving along, especially given the problems with other Englert property Capitol Lounge. Anyone up for a DCist pubcrawl when these places are in full swing?
