It’s easy to see why @washingtonianmag mentioned this gorgeous dish in their issue of “Best New Restaurants.” Motorkat’s Curried Fried Chicken has been on the menu since we opened, and for good reason. Served with forbidden rice, Madras curry, and a crunchy herb salad, this elevated comfort food is the perfect combination of exotic flavors and textures. Make your reservation today!

A reminder of Route 1’s segregated past has been replaced by a powerful and inspirational symbol of racial reconciliation. Over the weekend, the towns of Brentwood, which was historically white, and North Brentwood, founded by Black Civil War veterans and the county’s first incorporated African American town, unveiled a new sculpture to replace the Windom Road segregation barrier that long separated the two towns. The memorial sculpture stands in what is now the Windom Road Historic Barrier Park, which is closed to traffic. Made of epoxy foam and steel, the sculpture shows two hands coming together to lift the original metal highway barrier and is incorporated into the work of art. Route 1 artist Nehemiah Dixon III @nehemiahdixoniii , senior director of programs and community engagement at the Phillips Collection, a modern art museum in D.C., originally proposed the design after an open submission process. He then brought on Wesley Clark @wesleyclarkart , a Lewisdale artist and sculptor who has a studio in College Park and has worked on a number of public art projects, to work with him on the project. @theneighborhooddesigncenter worked with community leaders from both Brentwood and North Brentwood on the project as well.” Tap the link in our bio for the full story and to read the history of the Windom Road racial barrier. - #brentwoodmd #northbrentwoodmd #racialbarrier #sundowntowns #mdhistory #ushistory #blackhistory #segregationbarrier #racialreconciliation #racisim #racialbarrier #reconciliation #sculpture #publicart #art #rt1corridor #pgcounty #princegeorgescounty #historynotforgotten
