Very much agreed. I used to love their pizza truck, and really enjoy the pizza at the downtown shop. Also, the beer list is really good. -
That may be team- dependent. When the Nats were there, it was allowed.
-
They let you bring in food too - used to do it all the time.
-
But you don't have to smuggle. They let you bring in food. We do it all the time.
-
Agreed. It used to be SOOOOO good, but the last few times we went, too salty every time. We finally gave up, and were sorry that it had fallen so far. I hope that there will be some not-seafood options for us non seafood folks who want to eat Ann Cashion's food again.

When I was a kid in elementary school, we were shown this periodically. I never understood why, but always enjoyed it. (Started school in 1970.)

Congratulations! And I'm glad to see you staying with a neighborhood focus.

Once upon a time.... I waited tables at a place called Hazel's, on Columbia Road. (Now Habana Village.) Jazz, southern food, really really really good fried chicken. Especially on Sundays, when the special was honey fried chicken. (The regular fried chicken dipped into boiling honey. Very tasty indeed.) Although, as horrid as I found the service there, Colorado Kitchen also had some amazing fried chicken. Those were THE best fried chicken I have ever had.

I have not seen it, but it's in the netflix dvd queue, so once we see it....

You know Don, you need a membership at AFI. Seeing these things on the big screen is a blast. Actually, most movie lovers need a membership there. Why yes, I spend too much time there. (And then I walk across the street and eat steak at the bar at the Classics. Hm. That would make a good food/movie combination event...)

We own the box set of all the films, and enjoy them all. When we decorated our bar room, the guiding principle was "What would Nick and Nora do?" (What hit me? The 5th martini.)

The regular menu at El Chucho has huitlacoche taquitos.
-
Cool. Will have to go check them out. Thank you!
-
Sounds cool - but I have to ask, do they show Nats games? See, that's the only reason we ever go to sports bars, and I find it frustrating to go in for a Nats game and be stuck with some out of town team because we didn't know that was the place's thing.

Since they propagate with runners, we always walked out from the big tree, found a little one, pulled it up, thus pulling the root up, and worked our way back toward the big tree, eventually clipping it. That was the easiest way. I live in Petworth - I don't really know where to find woods that aren't a national park. I'm not so good at that nature thing.
-
Sassafras? I love sassafras. I used to dig up the roots down by the railroad track and make delicious tea out of them (really). Sadly, I cannot find a good source of sassafras roots here. But I hate banana.

He wrote a good bit of autobiography. Some fictionalized, such as Slaughterhouse Five and Player Piano. Some not, as many of his essays. His son's books are odd, but interesting.

Restaurants Open During the Jonas Storm - The List is Here
saf replied to DonRocks's topic in News and Media
Just home from Upshur Street. Domku, Twisted Horn, and Petworth Citizen all open. Sorry, didn't look across the street to see if Crane and Turtle is open. -
It wasn't that sweet. I made it as written, and everyone liked it that way. I suppose you could cut the sugar - but it's 2 teaspoons in 2 pounds of carrots, with advice to cut it if your carrots are very sweet. I think the sugar helped make the sauce/glaze the right texture. Maybe you want something more like a Moroccan carrot salad? Those don't tend to be too sweet. More spicy, a bit anyhow.

Based on this recommendation, I made this for a dinner party this weekend. I have been informed that it needs to go into the regular rotation by everyone who was present. Thank you for the suggestion! (We got that book for Christmas. Very timely.)
-
They made that, and Mother Night (which was the better of the two, IMO) and I really hoped it meant they would make more. But no.
-
Did you see the movie adaptation? It was good, as was the movie of "Mother Night." Yes, I have a large collection of Vonnegut.
-
The first time I noticed him was in "Truly, Madly, Deeply." It's still a favorite of mine.
-
If you don't mind trekking to Virginia, Mediterranean Bakery has very good pita.

We saw his guest appearance here late last year. It was really a good concert. I have high hopes!
