District Fare, 2807 Kavanaugh Blvd., the new venture in Hillcrest by Tomas Bohm of The Pantry fame, received its beer and wine licenses Monday and has begun daily service 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Saturday and noon to 5 p.m. Sunday. The beers should be delivered today; the wines later this week.

The eatery, which replaced H.A.M. (Hillcrest Artisan Meats), offers seven sandwiches, including a cheese panini for children, and is adding a District Turkey sandwich, with in-house smoked bird.

Manager Gary Dillon said the charcuterie “will be the last thing we implement,” since the dry-cured meats will have to get OKs from the Department of Health. When that’s ready, District Fare will offer such meats as capicola (smoked pork shoulder), saussicon sec (thick, dry sausages), chorizo, gravlax salmon and bresaola (dried beef).

There will be at least three wines on tap and prosecco splits.
