Another New Restaurant Planned for Shaw?

Jeremiah Langhorne, who worked his way up from line cook to become chef de cuisine at McCrady’s in Charleston, SC is planning to open a 45-seat restaurant in Shaw next summer. According to Hanna Raskin's Charleston food blog Langhorne is currently negotiating a lease for a restaurant space in Shaw, near Logan Circle. He has not settled on a name, although he has a few contenders “in the works.”
According to Langhorne, he’s been contemplating a D.C. move for a few years, but was initially discouraged by colleagues who didn’t see much culinary potential in a city. Langhorne, who grew up in Virginia (Charlottesville),says he’s always been drawn to the city’s architecture and neighborhood vibe. “I’m from Virginia, so I’m going to spend time looking at the history of the region,” he promises. “I want it to be fun.”

Among the envisioned menu items in the “wouldn’t have flown at McCrady’s” category is a Sunday afternoon family-style crab feed. “One of my favorite experiences was having crabs with Old Bay on them,” Langhorne recalls. “It’s fun stuff,” he adds. “You might get dirty."

Lets hope it all comes to fruition.
