[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]this isn't political--its personal. My father passed away and I am trying to recall some of the places we used to go in Dupont circle about thirty years ago. First place was an Italian restaurant on the basement level. My best guess is this was towards the Foggy Bottom side of the circle. We also ate at a very very fancy French restaurant in a standalone white townhouse. this was probably more like 35 years ago nad was probably not in Dupont. [/quote] My condolences! There was the restaurant "Food for Thought" that was a lot of fun. Also, Burrito Bros. There was a little market outside the metro entrance with an Afghan man, his euro wife and child selling Asian trinkets. Paul/Sunshine sold fruit and flowers at the stand next ton then. There was a bead shop (bedazzled?) That stayed open inexplicably for years. Cosi. The record store. Too many comfort ones shoes (like one on each side of the street). A movie theater and a small safeway. And the "compliment man" (world's most cheerful panhandler). Also, Larimers market. Yeah, I've lived here toooo long. I'm trying to recall the French restaurant. Can picture it, but not the name. Be well in your loving memories of your dad. [/quote]
