Thank you, Don! I try to stay hungry, as do you.

This story may help explain Kushi's tax woes, though it may also raise other questions.

And the winner of our burger poll is...

As if you needed another waste of time, come to AWCE and pick your favorite burger in the D.C. region. It don't cost nuthin' to vote.

[Note to Rocks: I couldn't find a previous thread for All We Can Eat, which is rather pathetic. If there is one, I know you know what to do.]

Thank you, Don and the others on this thread. The response has been overwhelming -- or at least overwhelming to me. I prefer to just keep my head down, whether over a meal or in a book or just plugging away at this computer.

And thanks to those DR members who reminded me to change my signature. You know who you are!

I heard yesterday (from a pretty solid source) that the landlord is shopping the lease, but I didn't want to say anything based on that alone; I had no idea about Monterey Bay Fish Grotto, however. I'm not updating the thread titles (because of Google) until I hear more.

Mathieson says it's business as usual at Inox.

A second location coming this spring to Wisconsin Avenue, between Tenleytown and Friendship Heights.

Here's the full interview with Ellen Kassoff Gray. The damage is more extensive than previously reported. She's not sure when Equinox will reopen, but she guesses in about six weeks, depending on the availability of materials for construction. In the meantime, if you have questions you can e-mail her directly at ellen@equinoxrestaurant.com.
