Despite the questionable name, upscale Breadsoda in Glover Park truly takes the cake. Located across the street from yuppie mainstay restaurant Town Hall on the 2200 block of Wisconsin Avenue, your first impression is “whoa, sweet patio.” You’re greeted by a generous helping of outdoor seating complete with comfy table umbrellas to catch some shade when…

It's not New York or San Francisco, but DC has some surprising cultural moments to be discovered. And I'm going to tell you about them. Special attention to free, super cool, or just plain strange events.
The Garment District (No, Not New York)
It’s all DC, all the time here at the Garment District, DC’s newest pop-up art space. Also know as a Temporarium, the Garment District revels in worshiping at the altar of local talent. All the art prints on the wall are by DC artists, all the one-of-a-kind jewelry is hand-made by DC artisans, and all…
Get Thee to Bohemian Caverns. Go!
At Bohemian Caverns last night, I overheard the following coversation, which was most distrubing. Wow, this is great! I know! I’ve never heard of it before! Bingo, problem! How can anyone not have heard of Bohemian Caverns? It’s like nothing else in the city, and probably like nothing else in the Mid Atlantic region. If you’re thinking…
Welcome to Wisdom
Thanks to the foodie revolution, DC denizens now have the option to frequent a “cocktail parlour.” Wisdom would never have been able to get away with that extra “u” only a few years ago. But they do, and I’m happy to allow for that and much more. But there’s nothing to gripe about at Wisdom….
Sticky Rice, Where Did Our Love Go?
Now before we go any further, let me say that I love Sticky Rice. All the times I have waited and waited for a table, suffered through lackadaisical service, and jostled for a spot at the bar, the only thing I felt at my most recent trip to Sticky Rice was underwhelmed. Maybe the novelty is wearing…
Ask Rob: Playing The Field
Dear Rob, Is it OK to date more than one person at a time? How many people can I safely date in DC at one time? Short Answer? Abso-friggin-lutley, and the number all depends on you. I feel that first, it is common practice for people to be dating multiple people and it is only…
DC Likes Jazz Music
Capital Bop‘s D.C. Jazz Loft held an event last night at the Red Door in NW. For those unfamiliar with the venue, it’s reminiscent of Greenwich Village in the 1960s – the era of Mad Men. Walking down a sketchy alley on I St NW between 4th and 5th, you enter through a crudely painted door,…

The Pug Delivers…(something)
This blog has treated you to the very best of H Street — Toyland, Fruit Bat, Church and State, SOVA. Now it’s time to try the rest. Anyone remember old DC, a virtual cornucopia of grungy watering holes with cheap beers and chatty, down to earth folks? Thanks to gentrification these places have slowly disappeared,…
DC Style Is Real
