Coppi's Clevland Park location. I loved that place.
The Cajun place on K Street in Georgetown under the Whitehurst, what was that called, Magnolia or something?
Belmont Cafe in Adams Morgan for brunch.
Lauriol Plaza when it was in its original location at the corner of 18th and S.

Yes loved the old Lauriol Plaza!

Yes! I lived around the corner.

I also miss Mr. Ks.

I will certainly miss Makoto when it closes. It always felt like an event.

Dinos is Cleveland park— we’d take our kid to an early NYE dinner there and then hang out.

Used to bike there from Bethesda! Loved it. Never met anyone else who knew it.

I loved this place too. The best napoleons with custard and fruit on top.

Does anyone remember the pan-Asian restaurant called Pacific in Sterling? It closed years ago but I loved that place. It was the first place I had mango sticky rice and it was soo good.

All of Roberto Donna's restaurants-- Il Radicchio for when we were young Hill staffers, Galileo for special occasions, Laboratorio for REALLY special occasions, etc.

South Pacific in Arlington in what used to be Parkington. It was pretty big, always crowded, and mysterious and exciting. The Polynesian decor, food, and drinks with paper umbrellas were exotic for Virginia in the 70's.
