Relocating from Chantilly, the snack business will officially unveil its new retail shop and production space at 11495 Sunset Hills Road, Suite 105, with a grand opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony at noon on Sept. 6, owner and founder Dania Abimourched says.


Last week was a busy one in the D.C. area for Tous les Jours. A day after soft-launching at Reston Row, the bakery chain began serving its signature French pastries and bread in Tysons.

The Tysons franchise opened Friday (Aug. 15) alongside Dumpling District in the first Virginia site of area restauranteur Zong Chen’s Luna Hall, a food hall that launched in D.C.’s Chinatown in 2023 and can now also be found in Wheaton and Ellicott City in Maryland.
