Frozen Stuff on a Stick, Untuckit open at Westfield Montgomery Mall (Photos)

The upcale popsicle stand I reported about a few weeks ago underwent a last minute name change to Frozen Stuff on a Stick, and has opened at the outer edge of the Dining Terrace at Westfield Montgomery Mall in Bethesda. In addition to handmade gourmet frozen pops, they also sell high-quality coffees, teas and kombucha. All of their beverages are locally-sourced from veteran-owned Cascade Beverage Company in Lorton.






In other mall news, Untuckit is now open, as well. The apparel retailer specializes in shirts for men and women that are designed to be worn untucked, if the name didn't give it away.

Meanwhile, Schokolat & Unique Treasures looks like it could open as soon as today. Shelves and window displays are stocked with chocolate treats in the form of horseshoes, a golf ball and clubs, a cyberpunk weapon and even Thor's hammer. We'll have to see if they deliver the promised chocolate gun and chocolate handcuffs, but they do have licensed Harry Potter and Star Wars gifts.

Next, a steak restaurant named "Dead Cow's Ass on a Plate".

Another place to hang while Dyer the Elf is on break?

Judging by the naked coffee cups (no logo) this pop-up, tempo spot, will be gone by the time warm weather arrives. Then again, due to global warming, a topic your idol der fuhrer calls fake news, maybe they are on to something.

I was going to ask Robert Dyer about the regulations relating to the WSSC work in and around Veterans Park, but unfortunately comments are not allowed on that article for some reason.

Previously Dyer said that "you cannot make noise at night in Bethesda".

Which is probably the reason our local nightlife is moribund.

7:55 AM Building construction sites around town have signs posted saying no noise before a certain hour in the morning.

7:55: LOL - wrong. Local nightlife is moribund because Councilmember Hans Riemer tanked the nighttime economy several years ago, including 15 nightspots that have closed in Bethesda alone after his "nighttime economy task force" fiasco.

Enjoy four more years of moribund nightlife courtesy of Hans Riemer being reelected by low-information voters, courtesy of the MoCo cartel and their control of the local media.

If you voted for me, you at least have the right to complain for the next four years.

LOL @ 8:07 & 8:09

Riemer cruised to re-election without one debate or any questioning of his record by the media (other than Dyer). He will have been in office for over a decade and I don't think he's every had to back up his claims to have improved Bethesda's nightlife thus far.

Legacy media like WTOP finds it easier to cover councilmember's colorful socks than ask a tough question every once in awhile.

Now the media is back to cheerleader mode with headlines touting the self proclaimed "innovative" proposals coming from the Council.

Anon 8:07 - What does "no noise" mean? Does that mean you can't have a conversation there?

It means you can't excavate for a high-rise at 3am. Make sense?

"It means you can't excavate for a high-rise at 3am. Make sense?"

So all noise other than "excavation for a high-rise at 3am" is permitted?

9:08am that was an example. There are signs at most construction sites with the guidelines about noise levels and times.

@7:43 It was started by some local MoCo people -- I believe relatively recent grads of Wootton or another school upcounty. The only way to make this work is if they work there full-time to keep labor costs down, and they got a sweet lease deal.

I love what Dyer is doing by highlighting these small businesses in MoCo. And this will all drop in his newsletter today. Sign up for the email digest!
