Ramen fans, you are in luck. People’s Noodle Bar, the pop-up ramen shop that took over Senor Chicken on Saturday evenings, is now open Monday-Saturday from 5 to 9:30 pm. And along with this, Senor Chicken is now closed indefinitely, so it’s ramen only.
Chef Peter He tells DCist that they’re going to convert Senor Chicken to People’s Noodle Bar, and this is a step along the way.
I interviewed Peter a few months ago and also visited the place — pretty darn tasty. It’s not the ramen you may think of from the packets, it’s good noodles, pork, veggies or duck skin, and fresh herbs. The pork is Berkshire pork and other ingredients are from local farmers.
I’m happy for them, and also glad to see another good food spot open — plus Senor Chicken never seemed to have many customers.
You can follow People’s on Twitter. They’re located on the Park Road side of DCUSA, just west of 14th Street.
