  1. Also in the same strip as Spices is an authentic Italian deli called Vace (where you might get some nice italian cold cuts or cheese...or a sub, grinder or dope slice of pizza) and Firehook Bakery, where you can get the bread, cookies and a quick coffee if the line across the street at Starbucks is too long. Cashion's, not far from Omni, is another place to have a really good (but casual) meal.

    Adding:

    Smithsonian's Museum of the American Indian opens September 21, and it's by ticket only. From those who have had a sneak peak, I've heard that it's really worth the visit.

  2. Looks like it may be so long from Crisfields, at least the one in the Lee Building at Georgia Ave. and Colesville Rd. There's three big signs up in the windows there saying "Restaurant Space For Rent." I wonder if rising rents due to the Sprung-ification of the area have something to do with that? Haven't driven by the original location further down Georgia recently, but presume it will keep carrying the torch for old-school, butter-drenched seafood as it has done for 50 years or so.

    I was too scared to add Crisfield's in the irrational emotional attachments thread. My damn father fooled me into liking that place. He'd rave, and I'd keep my mouth shut. That's my irrational attachment to it...but deep, deep down, it gives me the willies. Yuck! Don't hate me for being real.

  3. It's cool to see people already talking about it!!! This has been hard work...eating all kinds of amazing food....trying 20 different anejo tequilas in a sitting. The restaurant business is SO hard :rolleyes:

    Hey, ScooterPie:

    Welcome! Can you tell me more about some of the goodies you've tried? What is your roll in this business venture? Remind me what Oyamel means too.

    Ciao.

  4. One thing I know:

    As mush as I adore 2 Amy's, their deviled eggs are weak. Pretentious oily ones as I recall and, like, I think those eggs need a trip to The Mayo Clinic.

    Bring Out The Best, as they say...

    The pizza, I love, though.
