“Bukom Restaurant & Lounge
DC’s # 1 Live Reggae Spot 🇯🇲 Serving the best West African Cuisine in the DMV since 1992.

None of the people waiting for the bus had any Narcan and so my friend and I went into Medstar Urgent Care, just feet away, to see if they had any on hand or could help assess the situation.
