Kuro replaces Hazel Jane’s wine bar this spring at the Edge complex along the Eastside Beltline trail. Hazel Jane’s closed last September after less than a year. The closure was partially due to the financial troubles stemming from the ongoing health crisis.
Located next to chef Kevin Gillespie’s restaurant Cold Beer, Kuro will focus on seafood and serve a mix of Japanese fare and ingredients fused with Soul food dishes. Both chefs say they have great “respect” for Japanese cuisine and experience with recipe development and the cooking of Japanese foods.

WASHINGTON As the pastor of Holy Trinity Church in Washington, D.C., Rev. Kevin Gillespie often saw then-Vice President Joe Biden among the faithful on Sundays. And so when Biden was elected just the nation’s second Roman Catholic president in November, Gillespie checked the parish files.
“He is a registered parishioner,” Gillespie told NBC News. “I looked him up. He’s still there.”
It’s been decades since the occupant of the White House has been a regular churchgoer. Biden, who has often said his faith has seen him through searing personal loss, is expected to end that. But amid heightened security and an ongoing pandemic, a permanent routine may have to wait.

During President Barack Obama s administration, then Vice President Joe Biden would occasionally sneak into Sunday Mass at Holy Trinity Catholic Church in the Georgetown neighborhood of Washington, D.C. For security reasons, Biden would arrive late and leave early, as the Rev. Kevin Gillespie remembered it, but he would always stay for Holy Communion.

Other D.C. religious leaders agree. They see a president who demonstrates how religion can be a driving force for good in their local communities. Just as Biden leaned on religion for comfort and healing from his personal pain and loss, D.C. religious leaders hope he’ll lean on his faith-based values to foster the kind of dialogue that will heal America’s open wounds.
Wax and Wick sells just one product: a soy candle in a 12-ounce black or white glass jar, with a wooden wick. The minimalist design mirrors their production ethos: The candles contain no additives, paraffin, or artificial colors, meaning that they burn clean and long. The scent notes include amber, patchouli, oak, clove, and jasmine, with candle names like “Blue Pine,” “Mountain Fig,” and “Teakwood + Mahogany.”
These intriguing, sophisticated scents (along with the idea of enhancing my apartment with Matthews’ description of a “very, very tiny fire”) made it easy for me to decide to buy one. I opted for the Bergamot Summit candle, which Wax and Wick describes as having “subtle, spicy notes of amber, vanilla & sandalwood.” Unlike more traditional fragrance candles, which can be cloying and overpower a room, my Wax and Wick candle leaves pleasant, scattered whiffs of its scent throughout my space. I’ve become addicted to burning mine often lighting it as soon a
