Wonder food hall is expected to open its doors at Potomac Yard next week, on Jan. 9 at 3615 Richmond Highway in Alexandria at Potomac Yard.

The restaurant promises "lightning-fast food delivery, takeout and dine-in from iconic restaurants, all in one place. Order multiple restaurants at once for lunch and dinner." You can see all of the restaurants here.

Wonder is a new kind of food hall that is revolutionizing the food industry by creating the super app for mealtime; it has also recently opened a location nearby, in Franconia at 7001 Manchester Blvd. The eatery's other Virginia locations are in Reston and Rosslyn.

So far, the Franconia location has racked up 3 out of 5 stars on Yelp from 21 reviews.

Kate Z. from Alexandria wrote: "Tried this place after receiving a mailer coupon for 50% off. Everything we ordered was fantastic. We ordered a variety of options including the short ribs, cheeseburger pizza, fries, and pecan pie. I was genuinely surprised at the amazing quality of delivery! The service was equally excellent with the food arriving on time and hot!"

Some reviewers noted the spot is more conducive to delivery and pickup; although it offers seating, the dining area is small and features only about 30 seats.

A Wonder location is slated to open in Alexandria's Potomac Yard neighborhood in January, according to the Wonder website. The eatery's other Virginia locations are in Reston and Rosslyn.

Hours at the Franconia location are 10:30 a.m. to 11:30 p.m.

The eatery says "We partner with incredible restaurants across the country. From Phoenix to Atlanta, and D.C. to Los Angeles, we bring you a taste of what the nation has to offer, just around the corner." Delivery is free.

Founded by serial entrepreneur Marc Lore, Wonder is "making great food more accessible while pioneering a new category of 'Fast Fine' dining," the company says.

Wonder offers Multi-Restaurant Ordering, a first in the industry where customers can order from upwards of 30 restaurants in a single order, with each item being made-to-order in a sequenced fashion so that they finish simultaneously and can be delivered to the customer together.

The Garden Club of Virginia’s Historic Garden Week offers a unique chance in 2026, during the nation’s 250th anniversary, to visit many properties linked to early Virginians who helped shape American history.

Historic Garden Week 2026 is set for April 18 through April 25. The tour in Alexandria will take place Saturday, April 18 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. More information will be available as the date gets closer.

In 1946, Alexandria became the third city in the country to establish a historic district, preserving its architectural heritage. This leisurely walking tour of Old Town Alexandria includes private townhomes and secluded gardens located along the tree-lined streets of the historic district. In addition, the tour ticket includes admission to two Garden Club of Virginia restoration projects within a short driving distance of the tour area — George Washington’s Mount Vernon Estate and Gardens and Green Spring Gardens.

From Washington to Jefferson, to the indigenous peoples who initially inhabited these lands and the enslaved Africans who contributed to the construction of many of the sites open for touring, Virginia embodies its founding ideals through these individuals, making it an ideal place to learn about our country’s beginnings.

The owners of more than 120 of Virginia’s most beautiful private properties, as well as historic landmarks throughout Virginia, will open their homes for tours to help raise funds to restore and preserve the public gardens and landscapes this April. Historic Garden Week encompasses 29 tours, in addition to bonus gardens at Little Oak Spring and Morven.

Showcased properties span four centuries of history and architecture, featuring everything from farmhouses and manors to urban townhomes and mid-century masterpieces. Each tour offers a captivating selection of three to five private homes and gardens, many of which are open to the public for the first time during Historic Garden Week, along with access to numerous state and national historic landmarks. Prices range from $25 to $75 per person, with a child’s ticket (ages 5-17) available for $15 for many tours, which is new this year.

Some Historic Garden Week tours are walking tours, while others require participants to drive their own cars from property to property. If shuttle transportation is needed, it is included in the tour ticket price. Stunning floral arrangements, created by talented GCV members, focus on seasonal flowers and plants native to Virginia, adding another element of inspiration and beauty to the showcased sites. More than just a fundraiser, this statewide house and garden tour is a cherished springtime tradition for both Garden Club of Virginia (GCV) members, who organize it, and for over 24,000 attendees.

Last year, visitors from 42 states and 16 countries traveled to Virginia to take part in what is also the nation's oldest house and garden tour. In addition to garden restorations, proceeds support a historic landscape research fellowship program that is building a comprehensive library of Virginia’s notable gardens. Since its beginning in 1996, the program has documented 31 sites, adding to vital research on historic properties and landscape practices.

The Garden Club of Virginia has completed 130 restorations across the Commonwealth, including several connected to the nation’s 250th anniversary, made possible through funding from Historic Garden Week. While other organizations were called upon to preserve the homes of Virginia’s Founding Fathers, the Garden Club of Virginia played a vital role in restoring and interpreting the landscapes and key garden features at these sites, as well as at others with ties to the early history of Virginia.

Examples of public spaces where GCV projects have occurred include George Washington’s Mount Vernon, Thomas Jefferson’s properties Monticello, Point of Honor, and Poplar Forest, James Madison’s Montpelier, and the Mews at St. John’s Church, located in Richmond’s Church Hill, the site of Patrick Henry’s famous call to arms. Many of GCV’s restoration sites have connections to the nation’s beginnings and its subsequent expansion, shaping the development of Virginia and the country. Some lesser-known sites include Burwell Morgan Mill, co-owned by Daniel Morgan, a leading general in the American Revolution, and Fincastle Church, one of the gateways to the west.

Visit GCVirginia/historic-garden-week.org for a complete schedule and descriptions of each of the upcoming tours. Tickets and the Guidebook are available in mid-February.

A winter storm packing snow, sleet and freezing rain will move across parts of Virginia on Friday, leading to possible power outages and disrupting post-holiday travel plans, according to the latest forecasts.

A winter weather advisory will be in effect from noon Friday until midnight for portions of Northern Virginia, including Loudoun County. A separate advisory is also in effect for several counties northwest of the D.C., including Jefferson, Hardy, Grant and Mineral.

For counties included in the advisories, precipitation is likely to start on Friday afternoon in the form of sleet or freezing rain, the National Weather Service said. Freezing rain with some sleet mixing in will continue through the afternoon and evening, although some lower elevations may just see rain.

Temperatures will continue to rise above freezing from south to north into the evening, according to the advisory, allowing precipitation to transition to more rain.

"Some locations may hover near the freezing mark through tonight. Precipitation exits off to the northeast, with some light drizzle or freezing drizzle possibly lingering into the early overnight hours," the National Weather Service wrote.

In Loudoun County, total ice accumulations between a trace and one-tenth of an inch are expected, with sleet accumulations of less than one-half inch, according to the National Weather Service.

Meanwhile, a hazardous weather outlook is in effect for areas closer to D.C., including the counties of Fairfax, Arlington, Prince William, Stafford, Spotsylvania and King George, as well as the cities of Alexandria, Falls Church, Manassas and Manassas Park.

"The higher elevations will have to deal with slippery travel thanks to ice, but farther south, it’ll mostly be a rain event in Baltimore and Washington, D.C.," AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Chad Merrill said Friday.

The winter storm is expected to clear out of the state by Saturday morning. On Saturday, the forecast calls for mostly cloudy skies with high temperatures in the mid-40s. There's a chance for rain on Sunday, mainly after 1 p.m. Conditions will be cloudy, with a high near 49.

Here's a look at the detailed National Weather Service forecast for the region:

Friday: A slight chance of sleet between 1pm and 3pm, then a chance of rain and sleet. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 35. Southeast wind 5 to 8 mph. Chance of precipitation is 30%.

Friday Night: Rain likely, mainly before 10pm. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 35. South wind 5 to 8 mph becoming calm in the evening. Chance of precipitation is 70%. New precipitation amounts of less than a tenth of an inch possible.
