Shakshuka and breakfast pitas could be in the works as well, Wiseman says. The Chinatown store (736 Sixth Street NW) will be selling them weekend. That would include burekas, savory pastries that are popular in Israel, stuffed with farmer’s cheese and breakfast potatoes. Wiseman says the company is considering adding a breakfast menu at the new location. ![]() Since opening in Chinatown, Little Sesame has added delivery (via Caviar) and a catering operation, which could come in handy amid a bevy of office buildings surrounding Metro Center. “Our goal always is sort of to build a community around each store, and if we’re successful, just keep growing,” Wiseman says. Although the Metro Center location will be the third Little Sesame shop to open in the span of about two years, he says the company isn’t shooting for a rapid expansion. Wiseman reiterates a philosophy he espoused when Little Sesame opened its Chinatown outpost about a year ago. Little Sesame is hoping to open the third shop by late spring or early summer. ![]() At 1,400 square feet, the one-time pop-up’s new store will mimic the size, menu, and desert oasis aesthetic of the other two stores, in Dupont Circle and Chinatown, respectively. Little Sesame, the casual Middle Eastern counter that has quickly developed a loyal following for veggie-heavy hummus bowls, pita sandwiches, salatim, and tahina soft serve, will open a third location.Ĭo-owner Nick Wiseman tells Eater that the company has secured a space at 1120 G Street NW, right across the street from Metro Center in the heart of downtown.
