Co-founders Nick Wiseman, David Wiseman and Ronen Tenne plan to open a Little Sesame restaurant at 7118 Bethesda Lane, Bethesda, Maryland, later this year, proudly joining the stellar line up of restaurants and retail in downtown Bethesda.
The opening will be the hummus brand’s first outpost outside of DC. Little Sesame is excited to bring their freshly spun hummus, seasonal pita sandwiches to the neighborhood. The fan favorite shawarma-spiced rotisserie family meals will join the menu as the perfect dinner choice along with a curated selection of quality beer, natural wine, and low ABV canned cocktails. Nick Wiseman says: “We’ve always wanted to open a shop in Bethesda” notes Wiseman “We got such a warm welcome to our Sugar Fox Pop Up and the Bethesda Central Farm Market and we’re thrilled to plant permanent roots in this community.”
MoCo’s first Amazon Fresh is now ready to go at Collection Chevy Chase next to the Friendship Heights Metro stop.
According to its Google listing, the grocery store will open at 7am on Thursday, August 26th.
Earlier this month ThinkFoodGroup restaurants in the D.C. region require proof of vaccination to dine indoors for people who are 12 and older.
This includes Spanish Diner, which opened in Bethesda this past May in the location that was formerly home to Jaleo.
It has been nearly a year since we first reported that Office Depot would be closing and that an Amazon grocery store would be taking its place. A few months later we found out it would be an Amazon Fresh store.
We stopped by the upcoming grocery store, located at 15790 Shady Grove Road in Gaithersburg, to check out the progress, and plenty has been made. The interior is being completely renovated and construction is ongoing.
