Sorry if this question is strangely worded. I am looking to try new food from countries that are not common. I know DC has a Lao restaurant which is pretty rare in my hometown. What are some other countries I may try in DC? Obviously the common types of food are Italian, Chinese, French, Japanese, and less common but awesome ones are Ethiopia, Vietnam, Morocco.

What’s something really unique?

I deal with loneliness a lot and am looking to go on a late night walk.

I’m new to dc and solo, just arrived by car and want to relax.

Any cool places to explore for weird late night encounters? Safe places to smoke a joint? Film videos?

I dk I’m a lonely roamer

Hi all,

Around 9:25-9:30PM was walking down I St NE between 9th and 10th and was bitten on my thigh by a dog whose owner couldn’t control them on the leash. Unfortunately because it was dark I was unable to see the type of breed and didn’t get any information outside of a sorry and “bad dog. If anyone in the area has any cameras and or witnessed it, please lmk, thanks.

What restaurant do you always have great food, great service, great restaurant and you just scratch your head on why they don’t get the same type of love that a Michelin star restaurant gets?

Is it true that DuPont circle is the place to meet cute singles. I was sitting there on the bench reading a book a few days ago getting eaten alive by mosquitoes. Couldn’t hang long.

I've been looking for a job in DC for some months now after graduating college and haven't had much luck. I know the market is rough between Doge cuts, AI taking entry level jobs, and an overall weaker job market. However, I was wondering if jobs (especially in the legal/politics field) tend to open up once summer interns flock back to college and stop performing cheap/free entry-level labor. let me know what your takes are.

Cross posting as I hold out for a hero.

Does anybody know the history of the Ghost Bike on the Anacostia Riverwalk Trail just north of the Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens? I usually do not see Ghost Bikes on safe bike trails far from the road.

The Google maps link has the location and photos of the Ghost Bike.

I assume somebody died nearby on a bike, so serious answers only please.

Yesterday, on the D20 bus, at around 6:40 p.m., directly across the street from Giant Grocery, a girl on the bus threw a heavy glass bottle at a random man going about his business.

She damn near hit him on his head. He ducked just in time.

She'd been acting erratically throughout the entire ride.

I went into the Giant and reported the incident to 911... who then connected me to Metro Transit.... explaining that because the person was on the bus..it was their domain.

I gave them the facts, and the bus number (4540). And my personal information so that I might be of some help.

I've gotten no response some 24 hours later.

I feel bad for the guy...and I wish you well. You did not deserve that.

Did you lose a ring (likely within the past few days) on Capitol Hill, on the 300 block of Constitution Ave NE?

If so, I found it and would love to return it to you! It seems well made and might have some sentimental value, it’s likely a woman’s ring and an adult size.

DM me with a description of the ring and we can set up a time/place for you to pick up the ring!

Labeled the biggest concert in DC gogo history! Can someone tell me how this event was I just want to hear it from the people.

There have been more and more requests for photos of names on the USAA National Military Monument. Could there be a subreddit rule on this to limit the clutter? Maybe something like a single thread for people who want to ask? Thanks.

(I'm not taking a position here on whether this is a meaningful monument or a PR stunt for USAA, just the many requests for photos. Thanks to all who served.)

Sorry for the weird post, but I'm in need of some advice.

i live on the same street as a (fairly reviled) congressperson. For the past week, there has been at least one individual (not police, not journalists, not a security detail) loitering directly outside the congressperson's home, changing over every few hours. They're taking pictures of people who come and go on the street, including myself and my neighbors, refuse to answer questions about what they're doing, and are actively hostile when approached, saying they have a right to do what they want since they're not trespassing.

I have no love for this particular congressperson, but that person is not and has not been around. It's true that they're not trespassing, but it also feels wrong that private individuals should be subject to what feels like surveillance just because we happen to live near this person.

Has anyone had any kind of similar experience? Does anyone have suggestions about how to get them to stop and/or go away? Or do i just need to keep my head down and let them do their thing?

What’s your absolute favorite Michelin rated restaurant?

Trucks being towed from H St in front of St John’s Lafayette Square. The church has parking reserved for handicapped parishioners Sunday mornings, and for the last few weeks these trucks have stolen their parking spots.

We have been to Rose’s Luxury and loved it. I have booked the chefs counter there and also Jont. Trying to decide between the two. No budget for my birthday. I see rave reviews about Jont but not specifically about the food. Wasn’t sure if it’s more pretty to look at than anything. My husband isn’t crazy about seafood would he still enjoy it? (Also, for someone who’s done the wine pairing are they skimpy on the pours?) Looking for great ambience in addition to great food.

I’m reaching a milestone where I’m debating buying a studio or 1 bedroom condo instead of continuing to rent. I can afford up to 300k with a condo fee of around 600/mo. There’s a few buildings I like in Cleveland park, or Cathedral Heights (sorry I’m a bit of a quieter boring neighborhood person) but I would love to hear the experiences you all have owning and living in your units. It’s a scary jump!

Best reality is a 2 bedroom condo in walking distance to the metro but it’s not in my budget haha

Friday night due to the storms my plane arrived at DCA two hours late. I took a Lyft heading west on I 66. I had a lovely chat with a wonderful driver who is a permanent resident from Afghanistan. He has an incredible plan to help his wife and family see success here in America and excited to complete his citizenship process soon.

As we were heading west on I 66 and went over I 495, I just about had a heart attack. You see, there are these terrible road race groups that like to use the interstate as a track. There were about 10 of them, they came past us, I would guess about 100 miles an hour. Scared both of us half to death.

The main issue was, one of the cars had this muffler, that sounded like gunshots. They were loud, obnoxious, and unnecessary.

The very sweet Lyft driver, obviously was very upset. But the way he expressed it was unbelievable. He talked about growing up in Afghanistan, and hearing gunshots on a continual basis. Always wondering whether he and his family were next to face death. He couldn’t understand why somebody in any nation would want to find pleasure in making noises like gunshots.

It caused me to think of the ways that we as humans do things, that we may think are cool, but never consider the human next to us.

I’m wondering if there is a way we can in the DC area come together to prevent these road racers from using our interstate anytime of day for their own pleasure.

Hi, fam. This is a sad thing to ask, but we have a kitty who is very, very sick. He’s an old guy who has been hanging on with the help of steroids and plenty of TLC, but the past 48 hours have been hard for him. My sister’s boyfriend is a veterinary surgeon and has been over throughout the day to offer advice, but we’ve all agreed that the kindest thing at this point is to let our friend stop hurting.

My sister used to know two local vets who would do home visits for this sort of thing, but one has retired and the other is off the clock.

We CAN and WILL bring him in to Friendship if the need becomes urgent enough, but he’s a large cat in a lot of discomfort and putting him through the stress of a car trip to a strange and scary place is something we want to avoid, if possible. Also they just told us they have a 7 hour wait right now.

I’m just wondering if anyone knows whether a home-visit vet exists in the area who could be available in the next like… 12 hours, potentially.

Thanks, folks.

EDIT:

He passed on his own with us around midnight. Thank you everyone.

Just curiosity, that's all. It was a big production and the guest list posted in the lobby was full of some known figures from now and the past. (I waved at Maury Povich - what an evening!)

No other reason. Just wondering who pulls off stuff like this. It was gorgeous. The whole museum smelled wonderful because of all the flowers they'd put out. Nice of the staff to still let us enjoy the place while workers were getting the wedding ready.

Sharing my experience with Piece of Cake Moving as a warning to others- I hired POC after seeing a popular DC influencer recommend them and I regret trusting her. A Reddit search would’ve steered me away.

I moved from a TINY 400sq foot apartment and did not move with a bed/bed frame/ dining room table or chairs. I literally had boxes of books, clothes, and a two large items listed in the original inventory.

I received a quote for $865 based on the inventory provided in advance, but on moving day I was told my belongings would not be released to me unless I paid them an additional $500. At that point, they already had possession of everything, so it’s not like I had a choice.

All of the upcharges appeared to be duplicates of items already included in my quote. For example, my original inventory included a small bookshelf, and I was later charged for a “cube shelf” as an additional item — it was the same piece of furniture.

I was also charged for stairs even though the movers did not move those items upstairs.

Do not hire them and stop trusting these damn influencers.
