**Our Favorite Restaurants**

**Alero**

3500 Connecticut Avenue Northwest

Washington, DC

202-966-2530

They offer great Mexican cuisine and good margaritas. Expect the average
entrée to cost between \$8 and \$12. And, they have a great deck for
hanging out on a sunny afternoon.

**Banana Cafe**

500 Eighth St. SE

Washington, DC 20003

Phone: 202/543-5906

If for nothing else, it\'s become famous in the neighborhood for its
margaritas. Much of the menu is made up of Tex-Mex staples - enchiladas,
tacos, tamales, burritos, quesedillas and fajitas. There\'s a standard
seafood section with indifferent paella, zarzuela, salmon and shrimp.

**Cactus Cantina**

Cleveland Park

3300 Wisconsin Ave., NW

Washington, DC

202-686-7222

For its tamales alone, Cactus Cantina would earn a spot on this list.
Stuffed with the diner\'s choice of either pork or chicken, they are
surprisingly light. A couple of spoons of a brick red, gently spicy meat
sauce elevates them to the realm of the special. Outstanding
mesquite-grilled specialties: deliciously crusty little spareribs, moist
shrimp, soy-splashed beef fajitas, and the exquisite quail, its crisp
skin glistening like polished mahogany. Great food - and, its cheap!

**Café Atlantico** (best brunch in town!)

405 8th Street, NW

202-393-0812

Make a reservation for 11:30 and spend the next three hours with good
friends consuming all-you-can-eat Latino Dim Sum (tapas). They bring out
half as many plates of each item as there are people - ask for more of
everything you like (like two more plates of the guacamole!) Meat eaters
will be in heaven, but there are plenty of vegetarian plates to fill up
on too. \$20 for 20 different dishes.

**Cashions\'s Eat Place**

1819 Columbia Rd

202-797-1819 \*make a reservation for this place!

Good eats, reliable, but can be a little pricey.

**Georgetown Seafood Grill**

19th Street (between M and N)

202-530-4430

Great happy hour. \$.50 oysters and clams from the raw bar (or steamed)
drink specials -\$3-4 for beer, wine, two specialty mixed drinks, and
margaritas, appetizer specials - \$3-5 specials including hamburgers,
calamari, and blackened tuna quesedillas, and the second best key lime
pie in town.

**La Loma Mexican Restaurant**

316 Massachusetts Ave. NE.

Washington, DC 20002

Phone: 202/548-2550

This very inexpensive place has good food - try the seafood quesedilla
with huge scallops. Service is lightning fast.

**Lebanese Taverna** (Woodley Park)

2641 Connecticut Ave. NW

Washington, DC, 20008

202-265-8681

Good Middle Eastern food and wine list. Outside tables are fun to people
watch from. Service can be slow sometimes

**Mark\'s Kitchen**

7006 Carroll Avenue

Takoma Park, MD

301.270.1884

American and Asian specialties with a strong vegetarian emphasis:
spinach tofu cakes, stuffed acorn squash, ginger-lime soba, and much
more. Daily vegetarian specials and fresh fruit and vegetable juices are
also available.

**Mi Rancho**

8701 Ramsey Ave.

Silver Spring, MD 20874

Phone: 301/588-4372

Mi Rancho makes a great combination platters. For vegetarians, there are
the fajitas with vegetables, an assortment of grilled onions, peppers,
squash and carrots. Rice and beans accompany all entrees. Great lunch
specials.

**Mr. Chen\'s** **Organic Chinese Cuisine**

2604 Connecticut Ave (Woodley Park)

Washington DC

202-797-9668

Mr. Chen\'s is a small, competitively priced Woodley Park dining room
with carryout. Try their soups!

**Perry\'s**

1811 Columbia Road

202-234-6218

Great place to eat sushi on the rooftop deck!

**Pizzeria Paradiso**

2029 P Street (Dupont Circle)

202-223-1245

Great pizza!

**Sakana**

2026 P Street, Dupont Circle

202-887-0900

Good Japanese food.

**Savory Café** (Great Sunday brunch too!)

7071 Carroll Ave

Takoma Park, MD

301-270-2233

Dishes are displayed in glass-front cases where diners order, collect
utensils and choose bottled beverages from the cooler. The food\'s as
close to homemade as restaurant food gets: great vegetarian dishes and
salads, huge sandwiches and really unique (but tasty) soups!

**Spices**

3333A Connecticut Ave (Cleveland Park)

202-686-3833

**Udupi Palace**

1329 University Blvd.

East Langley Park, MD

301/434-1531

If you like vegetarian Indian food, this is the place to eat! It\'s a
non-descript setting (no frills, located in strip mall on University
Blvd.) but the food is excellent. Their prices are reasonable (dinner
from \$8-12) and they have a full selection of naan, roti, chapati,
chutneys, masala, curries, paneer, dosa, and, of course, mango lassie.

**Where to buy good stuff!**

**Consignment Stores**

**Secondi** in Dupont Circle

Great for high-quality, professional consignment clothing. Drawback:
they\'re not cheap.

**Glad Rags** in Takoma Park is another good bet for clothes on
consignment \-- lots of fun stuff, some retro, some wild. Tend to be
pretty reasonable.

**Takoma Underground** in Takoma Park is a basement store with great
vintage clothes for costumes and some professional-style clothing

**Act II** in Bethesda

**Vintage to Vogue** in Bethesda

**Retail/Department Stores**

**Mezza Galleria** in Friendship Heights - lots of department stores,
boutiques

**Georgetown** - lots of fun boutique shops

**Pentagon City Mall** (take metro directly there)

**Tyson\'s Corner** in the McLean area - not metro accessible. Most
major department stores, a large variety of boutique shops, and of
course, your standard Gap, Limited, Express, and Banana Republic.

**Tyson\'s Corner Galleria** - in the McLean area - not metro accessible
Most major upscale department stores - Saks, Bloomingdale\'s,
Nordstrom\'s, lots of upscale boutique shops.

**Montgomery Mall** - north of Bethesda off Democracy Blvd (off Old
Georgetown Road headed north). Major department stores: Nordstrom\'s,
Hecht\'s, Sears and lots of boutique shops.

**Rockville Pike area** - strip mall central: Ross, Marshall\'s, TJ Max,
and almost every other chain store you can imagine.

**Gourmet wines and cheeses**

**Calvert Woodley Market and Cheeserie**

Connecticut Ave at the Van Ness/UDC Metro Station

Good prices on beer and highly knowledgeable wine staff . \$2.99 a pound
specials on four different cheeses each week, Wednesday-Saturday (Check
the Post's Food Section) Additional specials on cured meats, other
cheeses, and gourmet items such as mustard, coffee, and crackers, and an
extensive liquor selection.

**Trader Joe\'s**

Locations in MD: Bethesda, Rockville, and Towson. Locations in VA:
Alexandria, Reston, Tyson\'s, and Bailey\'s Crossroads.

Unique Grocery Store with off-beat sauces, condiments, gourmet frozen
foods, wines, unique breads and a great variety of soy products.

**People and Pet bonding**

**Good Veterinarians**

Friendship Animal Hospital near Tenleytown/AU Metro

202-363-7300, Open 24 Hours

Review 1: We took our cat here when he was run over and they did an
impressive version of Kitty ER. They took good care of him, and were
cautious but recommended allowing his broken pelvis to heal on its own
rather than surgically repairing it. Not outrageously priced in
comparison to other DC vets, and far more professional than others.

Review 2: Excellent doctors, but a little pricey.

**Dog Parks**

Rock Creek Park extends into Glover Park and Battery Kemble Park - both
are unofficial dog parks.

**Medical Services for people**

Foxhall Square on New Mexico has many medical offices

Best advice, just don\'t get sick - take your vitamins.

**Weekends are best spent away from the office!**

**Great beaches to visit**:

-   Asseteague Island, MD

-   Cape Henelopen State Park, DE

-   Calvert Cliffs, MD (lots of fossils)

-   National Wildlife Refuges on the Eastern Shore:

(all these are great for shorebird/waterfowl/marsh birding)

-   Patuxent River Park (\$12/day \-- great marsh)

**Funky Small Towns to explore**:

off I-270 north of Frederick, MD

Racing course makes obstacles doable and exciting.

-   Monocacy River

Nice stream to swim in and biker bar at the end of the trail.
