[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The food "scene" such as it is in the DC metro area is pretty good actually, compared to many other places in the country (world is a little more difficult comparison.) There is ethnic cuisine from cheap to fancy from virtually every corner of the globe, and there are both holes in the wall and very high end chic restaurants. There are probably as many James Beard chefs in DC as there are in NY, which says a ton about the culture.

OP compared DC unfavorable to New Orleans (fair - great culinary city), Philadelphia (say what? outside of the excellent Stephen Starr restaurants Philly is so so at best), and Baltimore (also very good.)

If you want cutting edge food, you really need (outside of NY) to go to someplace small - Burlington VT or Portland ME come to mind as two of the best small cities for restaurants in the nation.

But overall DC is pretty darn good.[/quote]

Agreed. There are overhyped restaurants in Dc, like anywhere else. Get out more, OP! [/quote]
