I am getting hungry: Heat Da Spot Cafe, a new Ethiopian restaurant and coffee shop is coming to 3213 Georgia Avenue NW. That’s right on the corner of Keefer Place where Tibet Shop used to be.
They’ll be mostly a traditional coffee shop but will also serve an Ethiopian buffet for vegetarians and non-vegetarians on Sundays, plus a traditional Ethiopian coffee ceremony. The coffee ceremony is something Harar Coffee Roasters does too.
Their website mentions other food like breakfast and sandwiches, but the menu doesn’t include it, so I’m guessing that will happen sometime in the future. They have a big patio too.
They’re having an opening part on Sunday from 2-6pm with free food and coffee.
It seems like this part of Georgia is heating up, with the new Colony Club coffee shop and bar, plus other spots. That also means the coffee shop gap I talked on Georgia about a few years ago is totally filled.
