New restaurant, opposite Safeway, new concept in the the Chez Billy space. The food takes inspiration from the Chinese street food Ma ate growing up (though he's quick to give Herman credit for developing the concept). Even before opening, Ma has seen the soup dumplings ($12 for an order of two), in varieties like pork and chive and beef and carrot celery etc. This includes a new selection of regional teas from China, Japan, Taiwan and traditional English favorites; the launch of TTP’s boba teas; and pastries from Kyirisan pastry chef Mollie Bird. While all daytime items are available for “grab & go,” complimentary wi-fi and outlets will also be offered to all guests looking to lounge.

Great addition to the Park View neighborhood. I like how the neighborhood is developing so it now has bars you can walk to like areas in NYC and Brooklyn. You don't always want to take the bus or subway just to have a drink! This is my favorite kind of bar, not a dive bar, but not a snobby cocktail bar either. They have interesting but not too weird cocktails. I liked the Gray Hat with vodka. lemon and creme de violette. They also have a happy hour everyday from 5 to 8, with all the cocktails $7. They also have a nice selection of wines and beers as well. It has a cool black decor with Tiffany lamps. It has an old vintage type of feeling to the space. The bartenders are super friendly an

There are no tables inside but only a counter with round stool seats you can sit on. You order and pay first then eat. I ordered the "Hungryman Platter" which consisted of two scrambled eggs, two pieces of bacon, a sausage patty, and two buttermilk pancakes for about $6 or $7! The food was delicious & a great value. The cooks & guy who took my order were friendly.

This place is amazing. It's been on my radar but I hadn't stopped by before this week. My boyfriend and his friend stopped by for Sunday Ethiopian brunch and really liked it - they said it was very informal but they definitely ate their fill of solid Ethiopian fare and were very pleased. They also said the staff was incredibly nice. However, they brought me back a cup of coffee, black, that was SO good and smooth that I woke up Monday and hoofed it over there first thing to scope it out on my own.
