“Dear PoPville,
My friends and I are trying to do the impossible, meet single, straight thirty-something men in the wild. We’ve tried cigar bars, we’ve tried sports bars, and some of us have even tried kickball.

Other than McDonald’s, is there anywhere in DC that sells good old fashion, chocolate/vanilla twist soft serve? The ice cream stand at Union Market used to, but sadly, they don’t anymore.

Allison asks: “Where can we find the best quiche in DC?”
Last week I had this masterpiece from Dupont Market (1807 18th Street, NW.) I get my eggs fried medium, with swiss cheese on a ciabatta roll (but for me any roll will do.)
What is the perfect BEC to you? What type of cheese, what type of bread etc.? And most importantly where do you get yours?
