I've eaten there before. It's been a while, but the pizzas used to be really good.

As a whole, I think that the cast this season definitely seems to be more style than substance. And that spinach salad was bullshit.

Juicy! More on the review here.

Thanks to the Great Margarita Caper and subsequent hangover of the 2000 election, I learned my lesson. Let me tell you that there is nothing worse than "celebrating victory" with a margarita/tequila shots/Parliament Light combo, stumbling home to pass out, and then waking up in the morning with the worst hangover ever AND George Bush as your president. Since then, I always make time for a proper meal, and take November 5 off of work (if possible).

No chermoula on hand so I improvised with dried coriander, cumin, cinnamon, bay leaf, fresh garlic, onion, lemon zest, S&P, whole dried chili and some fresh marjoram towards the end. Not bad, but olives really would have made it!

Leftover pseudo-moroccan braised chicken thighs in a spicy stew of root veg, chickpea, tomato, lemon, and zucchini on top of cous cous. Currently wishing that I had remembered to add the olives....

I disagree. Compared to Merkado, I think that the space has warmed up significantly. It's not as comfy as Tryst, for example, but it's light years ahead of what was there before. That said, the dinner that I had there was "meh" but the drinks were inexpensive which is "yeah!!". I am looking forward to trying out their breakfast one of these days. At face value, I really appreciate the fact that they offer breakfast items a la carte instead of some our other local spots that you can't get in/out of at brunch-time for less than $15/person.

Offering Single Floss Packets at Restaurants
demandalicious replied to Armand's topic in News and Media
That is almost as disgusting as visible butt-floss. YUCK. -
It's definitely an acquired taste (one that I occasionally enjoy) and I was happy to discover that they serve it at Marvin on U St.

Exclusive organoponic farm fresh midget tranny taters, obviously. That crazy Spike! He's always got his fingers on the pulse of the hottest dining trends.

My point EXACTLY. And that is why he should consider nixing the talk like this: "I would like to be an ambassador of bringing young, hip restaurants here. I'm looking at D.C. as a blank canvas where I hope to practice my art form" if he wants people (namely me) to stop goofing on him. I don't consider myself to be an all-knowing food goddess, but I don't need some clown whose claim to fame was time spent on a reality TV show turning me on to some next-level farm fresh cheeseburger action or calling my city a "blank canvas". Spare me!

Palena isn't just about the burgers. And I digress........I am looking forward to checking this place out. Is it metro accessible?

Yaaaaaawn. As retarded as that statement is on its own, it begs the question: How is a burger restaurant located on the Hill young & hip? I can think of many reasons to live and/or open a business on the Hill, but being "hip" isn't one of them.

ChurchKey, 14th Street near Logan Circle

What's the word on this place? I've seen a lot of movement/work being done there over the last couple of weeks, but no signage yet. -
Restaurateurs Face Higher Costs, Fewer Diners

This story is giving me Spinal Tap flashbacks. -
She's one to talk about being able to afford something while she's on national television with a shitty $5 haircut.

Porter's, Downtown - Closed
demandalicious replied to starfish's topic in Washington DC Restaurants and Dining
The miniburgers at Porters are a guilty pleasure of mine. The fried onion "straws" that are served alongside make them even more shameful...and delicious! -
How crowded is Old Glory on a Friday evening around Happy Hour (5:30-ish). Friends are I are looking for a pre-movie dinner spot that will be quick, cheap, close to the theatre, and not offensive to a person in our group who is very picky.

I am down with any kind of cake-product, as long as it is delicious. If these $3 cupcakes - or any cupcakes, for that matter - are worth standing in line for, and the pastry shop is conveniently located in my 'hood, I would be all over it. Also, saying that you don't like cupcakes because they are trite is like saying you don't like a band because they "sold out". Only in this case, it's more retarded because you are talking about CAKE. Cake doesn't need to be hardcore, it only needs to be delicious. Then again, I am one of "those people" who drinks $5 coffee and even I ate some mini-burgers last week, so wtf do I know?

There are very few things that I miss about Bland Rapids, but I find myself dreaming about Gaia Cafe brunching at least once a month. I love everything about that place. We need something like that in DC! While we are on the subject of West Michigan, don't forget about Florentine's in Kentwood for pizza and the Corner Bar in Rockford for great bar food and brewhaha. Flo's is much better if you go early to avoid the obnoxious bar crowd, or do carryout. Is Gibson's still around? What about Cava House?

Mixtec in AdMo is alright. It's definitely better than L.Plaza, ElTamarindo, Alero, etc!

What was up with that "electric smoker" that he used? It looked a lot like a device that is used for smoking something other than crabcakes, if you know what I mean.
