Gearing up for our Thai pop up at .dc the first week of August. This is one of my favorite little-known dishes Miang K*m. What’s your favorite Thai dish?

07/01/2020

I took a long hiatus from Instagram, focusing on new projects (like the “Rock the Casbah” pop up at .dc on for the next two weeks - call 202.248.4558 starting at noon to place your order), and helping my kids who are having a rough time with quarantine and covid.
When George Floyd was murdered, we had many conversations with our kids about race, both the generic “everyone is equal” and pointing out the implicit bias that so easily develops through seeing the broken way the world currently works. Getting back on IG to make sure my followers knew I supported wasn’t as big a priority as educating myself and my kids.
But now that I’m back on the ‘gram, I feel it’s my responsibility to make sure everyone who has worked with us knows that we are a company dedicated to equality.
As a white man of privilege that owns a small business, I’ve always taken race, disability, and gender into account in my hiring practices rather than ignoring them. It’s not much, but over the past 14 years the vast majority of our hires have been BIPoCs, women, and disabled people, more often than not making me the only white non-disabled man in the company.
The ampersand in our logo has always meant more than just “and”. It’s been a symbol of inclusivity.
Now it’s time to keep doing the work, keep finding ways to wield my privilege to make a difference however I can. Right now, that means listening and learning.
What are you doing to fight systemic racism?

There’s something so magical about freshly baked bread still warm from the oven.
I’ve been on my bread baking journey for over a decade now. And it’s still a constant exercise in learning and being humbled. Just when I feel like I’ve got it figured out, I discover something new to try.
The thing that keeps me coming back is the endless possibilities within something that at face value seems so simple. Flour, yeast, water, heat. And yet, change in any of these four elements create infinite variations that can often be difficult to replicate.
Have you been baking bread?
Ps don’t forget my pop-up “Rock the Casbah!” At .dc starts TODAY! Call 202.248.4558 starting at noon to place your take out order for some seriously awesome Levant and North African food (if I do say so myself...)

06/29/2020

Don’t miss my next pop up, Rock the Casbah, starting tomorrow at Primrose DC.

The Levant and North African foods have been inspiring me a lot lately, especially as DC is starting its yearly summer grossness. The flavors are bright and light and optimized for hot weather, so using this area to influence my menu was a no-brainer.

Only offering this awesome and underrepresented cuisines for TWO WEEKS so get it while you can! Call 202.248.4558 starting at noon tomorrow (July 1) to place your take out order.

Can’t wait for you to check it out!

06/27/2020

Hello internet. I am doing another popup, this time for TWO WHOLE WEEKS, starting Tuesday at Primrose DC

We are calling it Rock the Casbah in a nod to The Clash (my all time favorite band) and because it is a North African & Lebanese focused menu.

Limited quantities each night so start calling 202.248.4558 at noon the day you want some! So excited!

05/19/2020

Tonight is the night! Larry’s Szechuan Vacay is open tonight and tomorrow ONLY at .dc so be sure to call 202.248.4558 starting at noon! @ Brookland

05/16/2020

I’ve been recipe testing for Larry’s Szechuan Vacay, my pop up next TUESDAY and WEDNESDAY at .dc.

Be sure to call and get your order while we’re there!

Ps. Thank you to my lovely wife for making this for me!
