We’ve briefly spoken about the Diner, located at 2453 18th Street, when speaking about the best breakfast in DC. But I’m curious to know more about The Diner in general. Do you recommend going there for lunch or dinner? Or should this be a strictly breakfast spot?


The Little Fountain Cafe is located in a hidden little spot below the bar Angles at 2339 18th Street, NW. Here’s a look at the menu. It’s a great date spot and the food is often excellent. Full disclosure – I know the owner and chef pretty well. I previously mentioned it briefly when we spoke about hidden restaurants. But what do you guys think – thumbs up or down? Do you like any particular dish?


I spotted this sign outside 1813 Columbia Road, NW in Adams Morgan near the Blockbuster. Despite the title of the post I do not believe it is affiliated with the bodega next door. I don’t believe it’s open yet, but from the looks of it the opening should be soon. I wonder if they’ll be able to compete with the cool looking Caliyogurt on 18th street a couple blocks away?


Crumbs & Coffee is located at 1737 Columbia Road, NW in Adams Morgan. I’m always on the lookout for good breakfast spots so I figured I’d see if there are any fans out there. I think the most important question is – do they have good egg sandwiches? And how are the bagels?


This one is located at 2713 Ontario Road, NW in Adams Morgan. We once spoke about it way back in the day. But I was stunned to see that it is still for sale. So I checked out some photos on redfin and it doesn’t look bad at all inside. So my question is – can a pop up look so bad from the outside that you’ll have an extra tough time selling? Or do you simply think they are asking too much ($569,999 for a 2 bed 2 bath 2 level condo)?

The flier says:

“Great investment opportunity in the heart of Adams Morgan 4 level, 4500+ SF, ton’s of original detail, pocket doors, formal dining room , HWF’s, 9+ ceilings, finished basement.”

More info and frustratingly no photos here.

Well, let’s assume it needs a lot of work because of the lack of photos. But if as they say there is lots of original detail that may be pretty sweet. But would you call something an investment property if it’s on the market for $739,000?


Just noticed a big sign outside the boxing gym located on 18th Street just north of Florida. Makes me wonder about these tough economic times. Are people canceling their gym memberships as a cost cutting measure?

Remember when these places were opening up all over? Are there any fans out there?
