The Bethesda Row location of Jaleo has temporarily closed. Celebrity chef José Andrés' popular Spanish tapas restaurant had remained open for takeout service only, but that apparently was no longer sustainable as Montgomery County remains in lockdown. In a statement, the restaurant said, "Due to COVID19, Jaleo Bethesda is hibernating until further notice." They recommended customers order delivery from other restaurants in Andrés' ThinkFoodGroup empire in Northern Virginia or the District.
On Bethesda Avenue, the Apple Store has now lowered a black curtain to block view of the store's interior. A few of the company's stores have reopened in the United States over the last couple of weeks. So far, I have heard of no special policies being implemented by Apple beyond the standard disinfecting regimen throughout the day, and limiting the number of customers allowed in at one time. Masks must be worn by customers and staff alike, and temperatures will be checked at the door, according to a statement from Apple. Customers without masks will be provided with one at the door, as well.
It seems a shame that they just finished remodeling the store to enhance their Today at Apple classes, and now such group gatherings are decidedly passe.

Jaleo closed for renovations at Bethesda Row (Photos)
Jaleo Bethesda closed for renovations yesterday, and says it is scheduled to reopen April 21. It will be interesting to see what changes Chef José Andrés and his Think Food Group have in store for the restaurant. You may recall that it was renovated only about 18 months ago, closing for only a week that time. Those needing their tapas can head to other Jaleo locations in the District or Crystal City - or try other recommended nearby Spanish restaurants in downtown Bethesda: Guardado's or 100 Montaditos.

JALEO BETHESDA SERVING COLUMBUS DAY BRUNCH
Jaleo at Bethesda Row is serving a special Columbus Day Brunch today from 11:30 AM - 3:00 PM. I have to make one correction to their announcement; Columbus was actually born in Genoa, not Spain. But, understandably, Spain considers him one of their own.

JOSÉ ANDRÉS PEPE FOOD TRUCK ADDS BETHESDA ROW AS A STOP!!
INCREDIBLE!
Another Robert Dyer @ Bethesda Row Exclusive
World-famous chef - and owner of Bethesda Row's Jaleo - Jose Andres has announced what downtown Bethesda has been waiting 6 months to hear:
His Pepe food truck will be adding Bethesda Row as a stop from now on! Pepe will also stop at the NIH campus.
Pepe's menu will include:
Butifarra Burger
Pollo Frito
Escalivada
Pepito de Iberico
Spanish Grilled Cheese
Futbol Club Barcelona
Jamon Serrano y queso Manchego
Pepito de ternera
Andres is perhaps the highest-profile restauranteur to "turn the tables" on the popular food truck phenomenon, by launching his own truck.
In terms of downtown Bethesda restaurants, Bold Bite recently launched a rolling hot dog cart out of its Fairmont Avenue location.
The competition for lunch dollars is just getting started. Andres' expansion into Montgomery County (Friendship Heights and Rockville Town Center are also on the list of stops) could lure more big names and DC food trucks to downtown Bethesda.
