I bet she giggled and chortled like an idiot.

It's about time La Madeline got the respect it deserves! And how about those Cap Grille Fries??! Amazing. Sometimes I go there and just gorge myself on those fries and rice krispy squares and then I go rent a Michael Bay movie and call it an evening because I'm one of those arrogant foodie hipsters. If you ask me, it's a good thing that Palena, by former White House chef Frank Ruta is not on this DC foodie's guide. That place gets enough publicity as it is.

Why?

I have a pretty interesting story about Rio Grande. You see, there was this guy, pretty average in most respects. He was hungry one day and happened to stop into Rio Grande. He ordered a meal and consumed it, it doesn't really matter what it was. It wasn't the best meal he had ever had and it certainly wasn't the worst. It got the job done, though. The waitstaff was quick - not overly fast or anything and not too slow. They were also fairly pleasant. Nothing over the top, just pleasant. The man paid with his credit card and exited the restaurant. Three weeks later he received his credit card bill, which included the purchase at Rio Grande. He then paid his credit card bill, thus completing the transaction. -
not as awkward as paying twice as much as you should have to.

Sietsema is right on point here. Many people don't know that Wizard of Oz is actually an allegory on the populist movement. Well, I'll quote my old econ professor here, because he said it better than I can.:

I was there a month ago and there was a good deal of garlic. It is embedded in the meat, which is a very good thing.

No, I've never been. I just wanted to rectify the discrepancy I noticed. Thanks for the review though, I will definitely check it out now.

Jack, Were you disappointed because the menu advertised four kinds of beans, yet you only got three? serviceable indeed! "rubfully" yours, Jason

Here is more info and photos: http://www.buffy.nu/article.php3?id_article=9586 I'm really surprised Bourdain signed off on this given his dislike for celebrity chefs in general. I can't imagine it tracks too closely to the book given that this simply wasn't what the book was about.

Pho places in Vietnam supply overflowing toppings. Oh what a life that would be.

Besides some weird comma action this seems like a great deal!

Got a name for that pho place in the Eden Center? I love me some sawtooth herb.

to be fair, re: five guys, the last time I had one of their burgers was about 10 years ago and it was at one of the original locations. i can't imagine the quality has dropped too much though. Frank, I'm wondering if you do anything to the meat before grilling, such as adding any seasonings?
-
Although there may be inconsistency in the various locations, I'd have to say five guys. I almost always have a damn good burger there.

this place pisses me off because sometimes I'll get this amazingly overstuffed burrito that fills me up for hours and sometimes the mean burrito ladies will put barely enough in such that it even resembles a burrito. If you are gonna put crap in a tortilla, you might as put a lot of crap in a burrito.

For my money, El Polo Rico in Clarendon is the best. You get a quarter of a delicious chicken, huge fries, cole slaw, and green (chopped jalepeno) and white (some mayo concoction) sauces for something around 3.75 plus tax. Not bad if you ask me.

This is my favorite kind of food - simple and undeniably delicious.
