Busboys & Poets headed to Harlem?

It appears that the D.C. legend, Busboys & Poets, has its sights set on the Big Apple reports ReadySetDC via the New York-based blog Harlem Condo Life via UrbanTurf DC.

Busboys & Poets has chosen Harlem as the site for its first New York shop.

ReadySetDC points out that if the news is true, "this will be a big first step for D.C. restaurants. Rarely, if ever, do D.C. based restaurants make the leap to New York, but all too often D.C. receives New York transplants. The NY Magazine food blog Grub Street recently posted an article titled, “Is DC the Next Big Food City?” Inside, the blog cited the upcoming (and recent) moves of famed New York establishments like Carmines and Serendipity 3 as indicators of DC’s potential new label as a foodie capitol. With Busboys & Poets move to Harlem, it seems the tables have turned."
