I stopped by this past weekend and was able to experience a new limited time exhibit “ The History of Black Schools in Montgomery County”. The exhibit highlights the education for black students in Montgomery County, integration of the schools, pioneer educators and the importance of education to the achievement, sustainability and cross-cultural communication of the people from the 17th century to today.

The exhibit runs through October 7th and the museum is open Thursdays from 10:30am-1pm and Saturdays and Sundays from 2pm-4pm. Group tours are available at any time on any day and can be booked by e-mailing [email protected]


The Sunshine General Store (located in Brookeville, MD, on the corner of Georgia Ave and Rt. 650) is probably not a place most people would consider stopping for, if they weren’t aware of the burgers that are made inside.

The sign on the door will remind you that cash is the only form of currency accepted. “Probably Olney or Laytonsville” is the answer you’ll hear if you ask where the closest ATM is. Update: They now accept credit cards.


This week will be the first time we are going mobile as we head to Cava Mezze in Olney where we’ll be joined by Cava founder and executive chef, Dimitri “Chef D” Moshovitis.

We’ll be recording our 9th episode at the restaurant on Monday, 9/3/18 at approximately 3pm-4pm and we’d love for you to stop by and join us.


After speaking with a few employees the last two days, I was able to confirm that Taco Bar is planning to open in Olney this October.

Taco Bar currently has locations on Russell Ave in Gaithersburg, and in Frederick. Taco Bar Washingtonian (in Rio) is not related to the restaurant. They released the following statement today:
