I feel a soup-making phase coming on, and while I assume Daruma has what I need, I'm looking for something a little closer to home.

I would suggest Naniwa in McLean, but I found some comments on Yelp indicating that it was closing. Does anyone know if that is true?

They also have a fair collection of Japanese supplies as well, the usual furikake, shoyu, mirin, curries... No Daruma (Fresh Mart is mainly Korean-focused), but more than most.
