A trip to the Westside Market (kind of like Lexington Market in Baltimore) is always in order. The Nauti Mermaid in the warehouse district had good food in a very casual setting. Thanks, Kevin http://www.westsidemarket.com/ http://www.thenautimermaid.com/

A restaurant in Bombay, India will change it's name after many complaints that 'Hitler's Cross' was offensive. Per the story, the owner said the name was only "meant to attract attention". Thanks, Kevin http://www.wtopnews.com/?nid=456&sid=890430

I spoke with the manager at the Vienna Whole Foods and he has plenty in stock. I hope to get there end of this week or next, hopefully in conjunction with a trip to Eamonn's Chipper and Nielson's for frozen custard. Thanks so much for the tip Ilaine!! Kevin

Oakland It's been over 30 years since I've been but the Cornish Manor in Oakland, Md. seems to still be going strong, and they have Veuve Cliequot on the wine list which is (to me) a plus. I remember they had a special of 21 shrimp which I thought was the greatest thing in world way back then. Thanks, Kevin http://cornishmanor.com/

She was a HOOKER? I just thought I was doing really well with her. I'll second Primanti's or The Original for your late Friday night. Thanks, Kevin

That's the smile of the week.When I first went to Town Hall in College Park, Md. you could get a 16 oz. Black Label, in a returnable bottle, for 65 cents. After five of those, every girl in the place looked like Mabel . Kevin

I'm looking for a jar of China Bowl Select brand Chili Puree with Garlic. It's a five or six ounce glass jar with an orange label and a black lid. I think I bought it last year at the Whole Foods in Clarendon but I can't be sure, and I haven't seen it anywhere. I've seen similar stuff in other stores, but those have big flakes of what looks like crushed red pepper in it and the China Bowl brand is smooth (the hot sauce with the rooster on the bootle makes a version of it, but it's not what I like). I'd be grateful if anyone can tell me where they've seen it. Thanks very much, Kevin

Is the Key lime pie being served at RTC? Thanks, Kevin

Do they still have the see-thru tortilla machine where the dough balls rise through a circulating doohickey while getting flattened and cooked to become tortillas? Though it's over 5 years since I've been, they were always very good about making sure the onions & peppers were done enough, and also giving extra onions/peppers as well as tortillas. Thanks, Kevin

I knew others must have caught that. Only slightly more annoying than WET your appetite Thanks, Kevin

Yes. And they are all populated by either "cognoscenti", or "eye-candy".Kevin

Ah, Sergio's. One of the most underatted places in the D.C. area IMO. Love their braciole! Thanks, Kevin -
THAT is the smile of the week. Thanks, Kevin

Has Hard Times fallen on hard times? I thought about swinging by Columbia for a free chili dog, but that location (and the Laurel location) is no longer listed on the website, and both phone numbers are disconnected. I seem to remember a lot more locations used to be listed in the website, icluding some outside of the DC metro area. Perhaps the .25 drafts last year and the free chili dogs cut into profits. Thanks, Kevin http://www.hardtimes.com/

The Kosher stand, and its knishes, is (I believe) located at/near section 220.Thanks, Kevin

I see your point but if the stores are only accepting government issued ID's, how would a signed statement asserting they are 21 make any difference. To me it would be like having a note from 'Epstein's mother'. And while I don't know for sure, I'd presume selling alcohol to minors would be a strict liability crime, like statutory rape. It wouldn't matter what ID was presented or what form was signed.As TJaehnigen said supra, it's easier to shop elsewhere. Thanks, Kevin
-
What are they going to do if the person isn't really 21, charge them with making a false statement to a vintner? Ridiculous! Thanks, Kevin

Though it's been over six months since since I've been to BWI, it was no different than the hot dogs I had at their flagship on Surf Ave in Brooklyn back in April. Kobiyashi notwithstanding, perhaps Nathan's has jumped the shark.K

Why the vitriol? (unless this is humor, which it seems not to be)Kevin -
BWI has (had?) a Nathan's hot dog outpost which has been pretty reliable in the past. Thanks, Kevin

I should have been more clear in that by accomodating Joe, I meant they SHOULD have rented him the glass (still crappy IMO) since they wouldn't let him use it for free. There would have been no reason for them to give him special treatment because in their eyes, he was Joe Schmuckatelli and not Joe H. It's amazing to me that Joe offered to pay extra to use a glass and they balked at that. Thanks, Kevin
