Looking for ideas for a celebratory dinner within an easy distance to the Supreme Court,

Charlie Palmer's is also walkable

Eloping in DC

Friends celebrated at 701 and it was a lovely venue.

Corridor Wine & Spirits or DC wine shop

Schneider's of Capitol Hill http://www.cellar.com/

Cafe Saint-Ex: cooking with cereal

I always imagine these enterprising chefs laughing up their sleeves.

HELP! Cooking with very specific diet restrictions??

I you can't eat salt you can't use soy sauce or anchovy paste -- both are high in sodium.

Soft Shell Crabs in DC

Re: short season for soft shells; Crabs shed periodically all season.

Need Dinner Recommendations for Bethesda Area

FYI -- Cesco moved from Triangle over to 7401 Woodmont -- old M&S site.

Staying in Vienna, visiting DC, where to get healthy cheap eats?

I was not wowed -- I thought they should be called sugary oatmeal cookies.

College Park area food?

Food Factory for kabobs

D.C. late night bars, food

Penn Quarter has plenty going on and is convenient to the Green Line metro.

Dinner near Marriott Wardman Park?

I had a good dinner not too long ago at the Afghan Grill on Calvert Street

Potato Chip Afficionado

I share your passion -- but not for Lays. I would take Utz any day over Lays. I was lucky enough to grow up with the Charles Chip man. Yum.

Best Coffee Shops in the USA - M.E. Swing Co. named

It has been around forever -- I used to get my coffee there when it was on F Street NW back in the mid 1980s

Davinci sugar free syrup?

Thanks for these quick and useful replies.

Davinci sugar free syrup?

Has anyone tried this product -- apparently it comes in flavors and the pineapple can be used to make low-calorie pina coladas. If anyone has any experience -- or knows where to by it in the DC/Bethesda area -- I'd be interested in learning more.

Bethesda visit this week - need some quick current rec's

I had a good lunch recently at Divino's (walking distance) and have always enjoyed meals at Passage to India on Cordell (not all that far).

DuPont Cir area - anything new and good for lunch

I had a good lunch recently at Mandu on 18th St

Where can I buy veal shanks in Montgomery county?

We have never had a problem finding them at Giants in Bethesda and they are usually beautiful specimens; Chevy Chase market usually has them, and so does Balduccis.

Near Union Station?

I've had good lunches at Bistro Cacao (walkable) and Monmartre (cab), good dinners at Cava (cab) and wildly overpriced dinners at Johnny's Half shell

Inexpensive (Wedding) Catering options in DC

Well I guess it depends on the crowd, but a cash bar strikes me as definitely not classy.

Interesting Restaurants near the Park- Zoo Metro Stop

The Afghan Grill, around the corner on Calvert St. can be good.

Good, reasonably priced Italian in Washington, DC

Haven't been in years, but Otello on Connecticut Ave in Dupont Circle was a decent value. In Bethesda, La Paneteria is also a good value.

Break up chocolate

Thanks -- that's exactly right!

Break up chocolate

It's a real product -- I grew up calling it break chocolate; saw it on-line as "break up" and thought that might be the more popular name. It's a slab of good-sized triangular pieces. Not a Hershey bar.

Break up chocolate

Does anyone know a store in DC metro area that sells this? I've tried Kron's and Balducci's. Looking for milk chocolate -- and it's chocolate that you break into (usually triangular) pieces, not chocolate that you eat when you're on the rebound.

Thanks

Indian food (or other ethnic find) between College Park Ikea and Washington

Not Indian, but Food Factory on Rte I has very good bone-in chicken kabobs

Pignoli Cookies

Well depending where you want to do your shopping, the ones at Cornucopia are delicious.

DC Holiday Party Help!

And maybe a time machine would help too.

Pignoli Cookies

Cornucopia in Bethesda

Zola recs?

I'm going next week for dinner and wonder if there's anything especially good -- menu lists whole roasted dorade that looks good to me.
