    Woodmont Grill is gone, but its abrupt closure looms large in Bethesda. After a $7 million deal, the new owner tells Axios how he plans to transform the neighborhood institution into a splashy @tedsbulletin flagship — and it won’t be just another Ted’s.

    Wonder says the DMV is one of its fastest-growing markets, racing toward 30+ virtual food halls by year's end. 🤖 Now come the delivery robots. We look at Wonder's billionaire-backed expansion, the pushback — and whether it can win over local diners.

    Restaurant Week reservations looking limited at the buzziest spots? Some of the best deals are still flying under the radar — from a $65 wagyu tasting to $25 brunch (with a mimosa). Here are some places worth checking out:

    Wonderful time @librarycongress National Book Festival today in conversation with mystery authors Lauren Nossett (“Indie Darling”) and @TimJRSullivan (“The Tailor”). It’s an incredible festival lineup — and fantastic to see thousands of people coming out for books +authors!

    Summer Restaurant Week has been decoded. A D.C. software engineer turned hundreds of menus — and over 7,600 dishes — into one searchable site. Now you can browse menus, find great deals, and search by dish, dietary needs, and occasions. Details here:
    Top row from left to right: Tai snapper, konbu cured, sakura salt, Big Glory Bay salmon, Matsumae konbu, sesame, and Akami bluefin tuna, soy marinated with wasabi. Bottom row: New School Sushi - Tai snapper snapper with bottarga, white soy, Big Glory Bay salmon with truffle.
