  1. They closed for two weeks to be responsible after an employee tested positive for COVID. The person had not been in the restaurant in some timE but they wanted to be super careful.
  2. We ordered the fried chicken dinner from Annies and some thai from Beau Thai Mt. Pleasant. While it would be great to order stuff we can't usually get we are prioritizing ordering from the local neighborhood places we go to all the time, that we value having around, and that we want to see survive the crisis. While the fine dining/special/trendy places are great, and I love them, I am more concerned about having the local workaday places make it. Those will be harder to replace. --- Tuscarora Mill (genericeric)
  3. Posted this in the Cheesecake Factory thread but cross posting here. It’s all true and my love of the Chinese chicken salad is vindicated. https://www.latimes.com/food/story/2019-08-20/cheesecake-factory-restaurant-review-lucas-peterson
  4. https://www.latimes.com/food/story/2019-08-20/cheesecake-factory-restaurant-review-lucas-peterson All sounds true, at least my love for the Chinese chicken salad is vindicated.
  5. I loved WTF and it will be missed. I will admit that I love the Chinese Chicken Salad from Cheesecake Factory (and only this). I could see myself getting it for lunch here.
  6. I went to Le CouCou a month ago. It was spectacular and we were seated next to Diane Sawyer, Quincy Jones, and Gayle King. I would NEVER possibly think to wear shorts there. Also, if the restaurant is a place that calls to confirm the day before (and they did that to me and it was no big deal) I’d also assume it’s not a shorts place.
  7. We are early 40s and tend to go to hipper places in DC and went a few weeks ago for a baby moon dinner. It was expensive but I had prepared for a $1000+ bill before so we just went in with a spirit of enjoying it. The decor is plush and fun and avoids being stuffy somehow. The staff also were great but unstuffy. Many of the dishes were spectacular (there was a red pepper soup I can still taste). The cheeses were good and the cheese kitch amusing. As people who love fine dining but hate stuffy it was a great meal.
  8. Love Azul. And Mero Toro. Azul for traditional Mero Toro for food and wine from Baja California.
  9. Grand cata on 8th and o. The best.
  10. They should make their delivery easier to order. We live nearby and can hardly figure out how to order from them.
  11. Also went to Evvia in Palo Alto for dinner. Sat at the bar and had some gigantes, a lamb chop, artichokes, wine and a dessert. Good food, nice bartender, expensive at $100 for one person.
