Local blog Irbyisthename enjoyed brunch at Granville's (1238 H Street)American Eagle's inflight magazine Latitudes has visitors to H Street covered with plenty of recommendations for dining and the arts.      Dust Jacket Dispatch gives a basic overview of the strip, and Washingtonian lists its top 14 picks on H Street in the piece Cool Comeback. We Love DC takes a closer look at the Popularise crowdsourcing  approach to choosing a tenant for 1351 H Street. We Love DC is besotted with Toki Underground (2nd floor 1234 H Street), and Forking DC's a fan too. When you visit make sure to check out all your sake options, which The Huffington Post explored fully. Eater looks at Smith Commons (1245 H Street) as the restaurant turns one.Even if you aren't looking to devour the Burporken you should still try to catch a show over at Red Palace (1212 H Street). CBS just chose them as one of the best rock bars in DC.

A little off the main strip the Washington Post considers the future of the Uline Arena. Could it really become a music museum?
