Brad Pitt Has Your Secret Shit: Rolling DC

Up for Ethiopian - that food in that place you posted pics of last time looked great

Haven't been real thrilled w/ Dukem lately but I've been hearing good reports on Madjet, which I've always liked.

Where should I have a nice lunch with a very dear friend? (Not toooo $$$ but comfortable. Meeting @ chinatown bus but can travel anywhere the metro will take us!)

Proof is close and great (8th & G), and they have a super deal lunch special in the bar/lounge area.

I also like Sou'Wester (13th & Maryland SW, near L'enfant metro in the Mandarin Oriental but great prices!), Brasserie Beck (Belgian, 11th & K), Poste (8th & F), and Rasika (Indian, 6th & D). I think they're all on Opentable.

Excellent, thanks!

OK so should we say Madjet (which is more or less next door to Dukem) at say 7:30 p.m. on Monday (3/8)? The kitfo was great the last time I had it at Madjet!

I vote yes. Have been to Dukem and a couple places on 9th(Etete and another) but not there yet.

Ethiopian on Monday? Sounds good.

Just had a meeting at Madjet and can confirm it's DELICIOUS! #9!

Oh sweet can't wait!

no one has angostura bitters in dc

my sister had a drink with chocolate bitters tonight! also: it is really hard to enjoy your bourbon when it's so loud you have to scream at each other :( please, please tell me it's only because of weekend and that place is tolerable on weeknights. a bourbon list that comprehensive should not be wasted on that environment :(

Glad you made it there! But yes, like everywhere in DC, MUCH better on weeknights.

20-year pappy! so clean! but so hard to appreciate under circumstances :(

Count me in for Madjet. Just been to Churchkey - liked it but shame about the TVs.

i am out in the SUBURBS. er no one is stranded in an Arlington bar are they?

I mean I am theoretically walking past much of Clarendon, should I break something on the way y/n?

i mean no stores have angostura bitters, dude at metro wine said the distributor hasn't had it for four months?

Thought the shortage was pretty much over - check w/ Ace Beverage though, they'll know the scoop. And you can always pick up Fee Brothers Aromatic Bitters there, which aren't quite the same but can sub.

I'm pretty sure the store on Dupont next to Kramerbooks has them - will check next time I'm there.

The hamburgers thread has me craving hamburgers but kitfo basically = Ethiopian hamburger so I am holding strong until Monday.

I had the Palena burger again a couple weeks ago. Goddammit it's so amazing.

See I have had that burger twice and was not wowed.

Because you can never have too much Ethiopian, my son and I ate at one of Tyler Cowen's fave joints, Eyo Ethiopian Restaurant and Sports Bar on that George Mason Avenue strip mall off of King Street/Rt. 7 in Bailey's X-Rds/Falls Church. In addition to the our usual veggie combo we went for chicken shiro over pasta rather than kitfo this time. Good and interesting although the shiro while tasty was so nearly pasta souce-like that it did not feel like it was Ethiopian. We were the only non-Ethiopians there.

So tonight at Madjet, I guess I will be able to figure out who you folks are.

I am not Ethiopian, but rather an unusually tall brunette sporting ombre tights.

i am wearing a suit!

Yay suits!

I DIED do you think we can get reservado at Gibson for afters???

Ooooh <3 gibson!

hi q! watch any hoops this weekend?

I don't even know what you are talking about.

loooool

umm whatever duke chill job beating unranked UNC.

TERRRRRRRRRPS

Still not sure exactly what all this talk pertains to.

if duke hadn't scored in the second half, it still would have won by three

yes, Dukem *is* wonderful, agree.

zack said it was amazing seeing all the dejection at elmo's durham last thursday

haha it was maybe slightly like when i watched this game at stetson's in 2001

I second Pete's "Terps" chant. When was the last time the Tarheels struggled through a season this much?

Mookie you're coming down for dinner tonight, right?

u_u

;_;

i watched that game from a distance of about 50ft. then the guy three seats down threw a bottle and gave carlos boozer's mom a concussion.

Another suit here unless I can get home and get changed first.
I will have a huge navy blue bag.

Look for my trademark black beret.

Sorry folks, I have some responsibilities I can't get out of tonight. I'm here throughout the weekend if further hijinks ensue. Have fun~!
