I'd highly recommend Hen Quarter in Old Town, Alexandria for fans of fried chicken.

So with GBD closed…where is a good spot for Fried Chicken in Dupont?
is The Chickery any good?
speaking of GBD…NRG is taking over with a similar venue

I cannot remember what the sauce is, I only remember the name of the sushi, it was called Japan one roll, from Okinawa in Winchester Virginia.

Was a hot spot about 5 years ago…. additionally, probably a really fun place to dine when you're on the wagon considering it's a wine bar.

I'm not going for myself. I'm going, because it's my partner's birthday, who still drinks, and has the a okay to get as snockered as he wants since I'm the DD. I can go anywhere I want and they can serve as much alcohol as they want and I don't care; I can still have a good time. Because, it's called, life.
And seeing how this is a thread about food, I was asking about, the food. I'm glad, 5 years ago . . . matters.

And . . . I cannot recommend Blue Ridge Seafood in Gainesville Virginia, enough. There is nothing better than sitting on a picnic table with brown paper, eating jumbo crabs by the Dozen, incredible hush puppies, alligator tail, and drinking ice cold dr. Pepper. That, is the life.

I've been probably a half dozen times over the years. Even when I haven't paid I've never been that excited. I understand the organic importance, but the food is just meh, and it's kind of stodgy.
