Yesterday we were able to stop by Downtown Silver Spring’s newest spot, The Eleanor, for a sneak peek of what’s to come when it opens this Monday, 2/24/20.
The Eleanor is described as “the neighborhood arcade & bowling lounge that serves honest, handmade food and local beers, craft cocktails, and great wines.“
After less than a year, BurgerIM has closed in Wheaton Mall.
We were first told of potential trouble for Maryland locations of the Israeli burger chain last week when Restaurant Business reported that the state of Maryland had revoked BurgerIM’s franchise rights in the state, noting that the company has not responded to the suspension the state issued in late December.

Moorenko’s opened a Rio location this past June as a summer pop-up, taking over the old 16 Handles location on Boardwalk Drive.
The plan was to see how things went before deciding on whether to stay permanently. Moorenko’s management told us negotiations were ongoing after they closed the pop-up location on September 26th.
