Boxcar, Xavier Cervera’s new wine bar, across from Eastern Market in the space once occupied by Petite Gourmet, is scheduled to open by the end of December, according to Cervera.  Named, perhaps, for the room’s long narrow shape, the new bar is the latest in a growing list of Cerverea’s Capitol Hill bars and restaurants including, Lola’s, Molly Malone’s, The Chesapeake Room, and Senart’s.  Also being added to the list is the old Hawk & Dove which Cervera purchased earlier this year and which has been completely gutted for renovation.
