“Dear PoPville,
I’m looking for the THICKEST hot chocolate in DC. Homemade whipped cream would be a bonus. Where is the best place to get one?”

Yesterday the band Guster asked: “Three days in DC. Please to send all weird and wonderful food/coffee/exhibits/record stores/walks/architecture/etc recs this way.

Check out the actual menu (below). Get the tapioca dumplings!” (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
With the weather getting colder, I’m searching for an Irish pub where they know how to pour a Guinness properly and have the warm comfortable atmosphere. Do you have any recommendations on where I should go?” (more…)
