LFL by Marie Reed soccer field by Champlain St and Old Morgan Pl. Not sure how I missed this one since I bike by all the time! Could use more children’s books and novels.
German American Heritage Museum in Chinatown. According to the blurb, it “is the only national museum to celebrate, display, and commend the achievements of immigrants who came from German-speaking countries and achieved the American dream.”
A monument in the Mexican Cultural Institute to Emiliano Zapata, a leading figure in the Mexican Revolution.
A free library in Shaw. Has A Little Prince theme going. Seems to be well stocked with novels and children books.
A free library at Union Market. Probably gets a lot of foot traffic. Could use more children books and games.
Copacabana, a Brazilian bakery and cafe. They were originally a bakery somewhere in MD and then expanded to have a cafe in Adams Morgan. They have lots of Brazilian snacks like pao de queijo cheese bread and kibe as many Lebanese immigrated to South America. Also find it quite amusing that they are getting ready for St Patrick’s Day–don’t think they celebrate this in Brazil but when in Rome do as the Romans do!
D Light Cafe, a cafe owned by two Ukrainian sisters in Adams Morgan. They serve all day brunch. I’m not sure if they have anything specifically Ukrainian unless everyone in Ukraine also has croissant and avocado toast but the few things that I’ve tried have been delightful. Their business has recently picked up from everyone coming to support Ukrainian businesses.
LFL on 31st St NW, near Tudor Place, between Q and R St. I like the faux brick to match the house behind it and thought it was pretty iteresting that it is dedicated to the staff and friends of Tudor Place–they must be avid readers!
