OPENINGS
Carrello
Altura owners Rebecca and Nathan Lockwood opened a new restaurant called Carrello (named for an Italian word that means a small cart with two or three trays used for serving food and tea) in the former space of the recently closed Capitol Hill institution Poppy on Thursday, according to a press release. Servers will push carts with small plates such as stuzzichini (snacky Italian bites), antipasti, salumi, and seasonal vegetable dishes that guests can choose from for their meal—think dim sum, but Italian style. Diners can also order fresh pasta made daily by hand, as well as roasted meat and seasonal fish served whole.
