Adding a Spark to Barracks Row
December 03, 2008
Walking into the soon-to-open Matchbox on 8th Street SE, you'd be forgiven for thinking you were in the restaurant's flagship Penn Quarter location. There's the same exposed ductwork, same fabric on high-backed booths, same blond wood tables with vintage matchboxes set into the tops, same fiery pizza oven tucked at the end of the bar. Reclaimed brick and barn wood from Pennsylvania line the walls.
Zola's 'Sister' Debuts
December 01, 2008
A Two-in-One-Package: With the launch of Zola Wine & Kitchen, Penn Quarter gains a trendy new place to buy wine, and the executive chef of the related Zola restaurant around the corner gets a place to test recipes and teach cooking classes.

What is a podcast? How do I listen?
A podcast is an audio file that can be downloaded to your computer. The word "podcast" is derived from Apple Inc's portable music player, the iPod. Podcasts are usually downloaded through a program like iTunes onto an iPod using RSS feeds, but they can also be directly downloaded on to a computer or listened to in streaming format. It's free to download or listen to our podcasts.
