Days after closing his two-year-old Italian restaurant in Woodley Park, chef Liam LaCivita is back in the kitchen again — this time, making glazed doughnuts and stuffed bomboloni in Georgetown.
Last Sunday, LaCivita officially closed Bar Civita, the neighborhood restaurant he established after leading the Liberty Tavern-fronted family of restaurants in Arlington, Virginia. “You put your blood, sweat and tears in something, and for one reason or another, things didn’t work out,” LaCivita tells Eater.
