DC Best of Guide

This guide has a list of what, by the Serious Eats Team's standards, are the best eateries in the area. Some I agree with (ie. Amsterdam Falafel), som I don't (ie. 2Amy's). In any case, it's a pretty concise guide of hot spots in the city complete with addresses, reviews, and some flashy pics of the local fare.

Tricks and Tips for Restaurant Week [BYT]

My imaginary blog BFF (that I secretly wish would make out with me) Brightest Young Things, featured a good list of tips and restaurant highlights to check out in this upcoming Restaurant Week.

Just as you’ve finished digesting the huge amount of food consumed from Thanksgiving through New Years comes a special event that only happens twice a year.[BYT]

My hooking up with a girl?! (!!!)

[No], “Restaurant Week” is in its 12th year and offers diners a chance to eat a three-course lunch or dinner (varying by restaurant) for $20.08 or $30.08 respectively.[BYT]

Dinner just friended me on Facebook!

Social networking site, Facebook, is full of handy applications to help you navigate through life a little bit easier.

One application I've found to enjoy is Local Picks, offered and moderated by Trip Advisor. It allows you to search through a series of eateries in your area and rate them (5 star system), while comparing with friends and sharing commentary. It also allows you to submit new entries to ensure all the restaurants you visit are listed and recorded in its database.

There are over 200,000 restaurants to select from, including top restaurants in the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, France, and more!
