Destination
We had some time before my presentation at UMCP, so we did some sightseeing. First we went to the National Cathedral and then… nothing else. On the way down to the White House, we saw Shake Shack. Actually, scratch that, I saw Shake Shack and some how convinced everyone to stop for an early lunch....
This Japanese restaurant opened up earlier this year. And while a friend of mine works there, I wanted to give it some time before trying. Not that I wasn’t eager. My friend kept posting delectable pictures on their Facebook page. Metal note: block food porn. So many months later I found myself making reservations at...
One of the few places around the city that specializes in, as the name suggests, prime rib. They take a classical approach.

The Bacon Maple Bar was a wonderful end to the night. Tip, Voodoo Doughnuts is open 24 hours and Voodoo Doughnuts Too is less of a wait. Just throwin it out there!...
Want good bar food? And no, it’s not a trick question. You got it. This place was a local recommendation. Good beers and surprisingly good food for a brewery. And to be honest, I don’t expect much when I go to these types of places. After eating here though, I realized I should expect good...
