Peter Pan Darkly: No Rules Theater’s New Production
No Rules Theater Company‘s current show, Peter Pan: The Boy Who Hated Mothers, is a fun, dark, engaging time. While staying very true to the book (yes, there’s a book, not just a Disney movie), this play turns the story on its head. Michael has died, leaving Wendy, John and Mrs. Darling grief stricken and…
Boundary Road: (P)review
Boundary Road, the long-awaited tavern and eatery at 414 H Street NE, is officially opening on Monday after a series of delays, according to their Facebook page. Aside from the wagon-wheel chandelier upstairs, the decor looks great (lots of wood and exposed brick) and their drink menu looks quite inventive, including one made with…
Fruit Bat: Mellow Delight
Like the 90’s R&B soundtrack on its stereo, Fruit Bat on a Thursday night is mellow and delicious. Between the homey feel of The Pug and the electic and sometimes shocking vibe at The Red Palace, Fruit Bat is a gem on H Street. Between wild and divey, it’s just the right kind of relaxed…

Hopefully this will alleviate the ludicrous 45 minute waits at Sticky Rice on Tuesdays. Unfortunately, as far as Le Grenier (upcoming French bistro…
The Parlour Pops Up on H Street
What is The Parlour? Shhhhhh, it’s a secret! OK, OK, I’ll tell you. It’s the latest pop-up art venue to hit DC, and in particular, H Street. Open this week only, The Parlour resides in the loft space above The Big Board at 4th and H, NE. I haven’t been yet. In fact, I only…
Ethiopic Reigns on Lower H Street
Now readers of last weekend’s Saturday Post know what denizens of H Street have known for months: Ethiopic makes killer kitfo (read Tom Sietsema’s review here). Now that the restaurant has undergone a lengthy refurbishment, diners can enjoy a more polished aethetic experience while sustaining the same high caliber of Ethiopian food that DCists have…
