From an article in the Washingtonian about the new Bombay Street Food in Columbia Heights:
QuoteRestaurateur Asad Sheikh has built a mini kingdom in northern Virginia with 1947, London Curry House, and three Curry Mantra restaurants—all of which he’s since sold, but still consults for. This Friday, Nov. 30, he expands into DC with Bombay Street Food, a Columbia Heights restaurant paying homage to the street vendors of his childhood.
