Only idiots, children and Randy Jackson (of American Idol fame), that is. The funny thing to me is that the accepted spelling for this particular colloquialism is "dawg". It kind of makes you wonder..... I love the UrbanDictionary. Funny

IF CK had wine service, there would be no competition... But Brightwood Park's barber shop and black-baggin' liquor stores aren't so close to The Kennedy Center.

sabg: Sounds like you have a well behaved 8 year old... I fifth the Ten Quarter recommendation. That part of the city keeps growing and growing and the options run from Hooters (not that I'd ever suggest) to fine dinner, to Spanish tapas, to Caribbean & fruity cocktails (Ginger Cove and Coral Reef). I really wish Zola had better marks (i can't say, haven't been in an age); the international spy theme there would make any 8 year old square. Ten Penh should be just right, but reserve early... PS: Mark Slater, nice signature.

Yes, but those chatters today were awful. People defend their positions all over the Internet, why not Tom on his chat?

The mere fact that the chairs fall backwards, is enough to keep me happy. It's like a sport; pin the drunk on the floor. Anyone who really knows me is aware that I only eat so that I can drink more. I sort of get heartburn from Sette, but I like it anyway. PS: I am only about half as cynical and drunk in real life. Truly, I'm lovely.

Oh no! Not the readers!

Forgive me for not reading anything before posting... But, if it hasn't yet been mentioned, why not the Dupont Farmer's Market? Closes at about 2 p.m. today.

Homer likes Balls and Donuts Provocative!

And soon they'll have their 50 seat patio open, so you better make your good connections now because pretty soon it will be Milano-fied. I mean that in postive way; they'll be friggin' busy. (I shouldn't say FUCK)

When I'm crashing on deadline, I eat delivery from Spices or Nooshi (Spices is better). Pickled ginger is awsome on your keyboard, by the way... I should know how to spell pickle.

Mr. Kliman clears up some sushi myths in this week's, "The Raw Deal" Not only is this well-written public service jounalism, but he's blunt and funny too.

e-pullet pul·let French poulet, from Old French, diminutive of poul cock I am an awful, awful person, by the way. More-hella ...and my 'toughtest reservation' is that I can't seem to stop posting.

I've always found that the hardest place in the city to get resis is the place that don't take 'em. Equal Opportunity Table Turning I'm bored again.

On Your MarkS, Get Sette, Go-Gavi! I am going to have to agree with Mark Sommelier about the chocolate cannoli. AWESOME. Also, if you're a thin crust pizza person, you'll be quite content here...and if you're not, continue to favor Two Amy's. Funny though, is that the dude making pizza at Sette now came from making pizza at Two Amy's (or so I was told). Maybe if you pull the right strings he'll add some extra D'OH. I liked this pizza a lot 'cause it was nice and spicy (but the simpler pizzas with little to nothing atop are great too): Sei di Denari - fresh mozzarella, broccoli rabe, pork sausage and calabrese chili peppers $11 Oh, I liked this thing too ---------------------->Gatto’ di Patate - potato cake with grana, dry salami and smoked mozzarella Food is consistent, prices are fair, most everything I've eaten is better than fair. Plus, the place only closes between like 3 a.m. and 11:30 a.m. (no lunch and dinner hours; simply open straight through); who else does good pizza for so many hours w/o stopping? You can do a 4 o'clock lunch on a Monday or 2:29 a.m. dessert on a Sunday or coffee then cheese, meats, pizza, more meat, wine, more pizza... almost anytime between 11:30 in the morn and legal bar closing time, any day of the week. Nice! The people who work there are as friendly as can be, big smiles, big pours, access to remote control so you can do away with infomercials and ESPN car shows. What if they let me watch the Simpsons!? The only bad thing is that there's this wooden lip under the bar that hurts your knee when you keep bumping it, and there aren't hooks anywhere for your bag or your coat...which means you have to hang them on the back of your flimsy bar chair. And I won't lie, the chair will fall backwards due to unbalanced weight, and the whole place will look and think: 'what a drunk'... But really it was just your bag on the chair. I think it happened twice.

That 'Please' is helping me remember... If you just demanded that I remember, I might have forgotten.

It's me again. Cuddle Me Cod Here's for when you don't want salt cod, tomatoes, olives...and blah,blah,blah. It's a dish worth talking about, one you must eat slowly and enjoy. Sautéed Spiced Cod with Puree of Potato, Braised Belgian Endive and Parsley Oil The fish, beautifully cooked, fluffy with a rice pudding made by a G-ma consistency and a thoughtful light-handedness on the spice. It rests in a plate of creamy and salted-just-right potato puree that you wish you could finish with a little tiny espresso spoon. And the endive, the endive is disguised by a vibrant parley oil, which comes as a little moat around the potatoes. I thought it looked and felt like the most delicate artichoke heart, and tasted more like something I don’t know. How much does that cost again? It’s cheap and it’s real and I can’t imagine there’s a better cod dish in this city…at least not one sans that drupaceous fruit. Where's the ‘Food With Soul’ thread because I'd like to put another of Wa(y)beck's up top.

Take two tums. (And change banks.) Should I join Wachovia? I belong to *UNTRUST The missing 'S 'is for Sushi, by the way...

LAST NIGHT I HAD THE BEST COD DISH I'VE EVER HAD! BEST, I TELL YA. I have work at work, though, so I'll have to come back later. The texture is something I'm going to have to touch on later too. It was cooked to perfection.

I love this guy. Franking Privileges

I love how it's CIENTISTS in graph 10

This is good b/c I either need a drink or heavy endorsement today. It's A MIRACLE WHIPPING at work.
-
I'm just goofy. Are you bothered by this? I can stop.

Do I look yummy? Squeeze

i hope you mean caulk....rubber cock!!! egullet is getting a bit racey. Yeah, yeah Caulk!

What if it was KRAFT "REAL" mayo, rather than Miracle Whip? It might not be so bad (I *secretly* like that stuff)... In general, Miracle Whip is gross (think of it in a tuna sandwich on wonder bread!). If it were imported and could only be eaten it with silver spoons, I'd still think MIRACLE WHIP tastes like rubber cock (I'm guesing...)! Fine, it just tastes icky. Forget the rubber chicken.
