Of Eating Out and Such...

So the D of C is not a city like New York and not a town like Walla Walla (that’s in Washington state, in case you’re wondering). But whatever it is, this place offers a wide range of cuisines to suit the international crowd and the local palate. If you know your butter chicken from your Malabar chicken or your stuffed burrito from your stuffed eggplant with tofu and green peppers, then this is the place for you.
We’re going to review the old haunts, the new digs and anything else in between. But if you checked out a new place recently and found the steak too well done or the service too-eager-to-please to the point of overbearing, let’s hear about it. And if you find a hole-in-the-wall that has a brunch menu or a chocolate pastry to die for, let’s absolutely hear about that, too. Bon chance and bon appetit!

Bravo! Splendid idea ladies! I am sure you'll give your competition a run for their money, or shall we say, their malai kofta.

My recommendation for today is suicide curry at Spices in Cleveland park- not for the faint of mind(don't go by the name), or bladder(drink a lot of water along with it, it's very spicy), but the taste is unique and the experience uplifting!

Would you say this suicide curry is to die for? If anyone knows of some good kebab/paratha place pls post details. Something like kathi roll in new york. If there's nothing, perhaps we could start our own!

The frankies at Heritage India in Dupont(http://search.cityguide.aol.com/washington/restaurants/heritage-india/v-137886) are decent. Naan and Beyond is good on some days. Sorry no known source so far of anything that resembles Kathi roll in the metro commutable distance that I know off. If the mood strikes I may be making some soon.
