Le Caprice at 3460 14th St NW is a fantastic bakery, and one of my favorite breakfast spots around. And it looks like they’re expanding their purview, as WAMU’s Martin Austermuhle tweeted that they’re applying to serve wine and beer — the info came from the DC Register, or the official document that tracks government activities.

I don’t have any more info so I’m speculating, but I’m guessing this means they’re expanding to be more of a proper cafe where folks can hang out at night and have a drink or two — sort of like Bar di Bari down at 14th and R, which serves baked goods and breakfast but also small dinner plates and drinks at night.
And if that’s the case, that sounds great. I’m a big fan of the place.
