From SMS: Dan the Man's Closing this Month

From Shaw Main Streets comes news that upper 9th is, sadly, losing one of its unique and inexpensive dining options at the end of the month:

Due to lease issues, Dan the Man's Teriyaki & Subs (1936 9th Street, NW, http://www.danthemans.com/), the 2nd runner up for Shaw's Best New Business of 2005, will be closing on May 30, 2009. Dan the Man's teriyaki wings have gotten rave reviews from customers and even the Washington Post. Their wings, both spicy and mild, have been popular favorites at Shaw Main Streets' annual meetings and holiday parties.

"We've loved being in Shaw, and maybe we'll find a new place in the neighborhood in the future," said Daniel Jung, co-owner with his wife, chef Deni Jung, of Dan the Man's. "The community has been great to us. We look forward to seeing all our friends stop by to say good bye and get one last order of their Dan the Man's favorites."

So it's three weeks and counting, folks. Be sure to get your last fix of Dan the Man's legendary wings, and thank Dan and Deni for being part of making Shaw a great place to eat.

And be sure to tell them, "Shaw Main Streets Sent Me!"
