I Egg You – from Chiko – Will Open on Barracks Row

I Egg You is opening soon in the Barracks Row space at 417 8th Street, formerly occupied by Mekki Moroccan Restaurant and before that, by Las Placitas.  The new concept is an all-day breakfast sandwich place which will serve designer brunch cocktails.

I Egg You is the creation of Danny Lee and Scott Drewno – the Fried Rice Collective – that founded the widely acclaimed three Chinese/Korean Chiko restaurants at 428 8th, SE, and on P Street, NW, as well as on Bethesda Row.  They are also behind Anju, the Korean restaurant on 18th Street, NW. 

I Egg You breakfast sandwiches have been served out of the Chiko Barracks Row outlet, but the owners decided that the demand justified opening a new location devoted to breakfast food.
