[quote=Anonymous]These DC “influencers” bug me with their “hidden gems” BS, especially the ones re food/restaurants and state/national parks.

I do have an insta account and a few months ago the algorithm showed me a reel from dmvfoodie that was showing how she had discovered this “hidden gem” of a soul food in Alexandria. It was the Blue and White which is on the corner of Wythe and Rt 1.

Claims she made: she had discovered the best soul food in the DMV, that this place was hard to find so be careful driving or you will miss it, that she was presenting this breaking news about this new restaurant.

The comments were brutal. I’ve lived in Alexandria 25 years and that place has always been there and it’s smack on the corner across from the main post office. It’s not hidden, it’s not new, and it is super popular especially with shift workers which is why it has nontraditional hours. It’s a take out place run by Koreans. It also probably contributes to heart disease, high blood pressure and diabetes. It’s the ultimate greasy spoon. There is no where to sit, you walk in, give your order, shift to the side, get food, go out back door. They open at like 4am and close once they sell out of food. They aren’t open on the weekends. Everyone knows this place.

The blogger had to take down the video bc people were giving her such a hard time about her hidden gem she was telling everyone about. Was pretty funny. [/quote]
