ShopHouse initally hoped to open in Georgetown last summer. In September Architect Herb Heiserman of Streetsense told the Georgetown Advisory Neighborhood Commission meeting that his client's "very aggressive" goal was to open by year's end.
Georgetowners will have to wait a little longer to enjoy the menu which includes, "distinctly spiced homemade curries and sauces, fresh vegetables and herbs, artisanal organic tofu, and meats raised responsibly without the use of antibiotics or added hormones."
