[quote=Anonymous]Grew up in DC in the 70s. Food at home was generally meat and potatoes, Jewish version, as my mom followed her mother's cooking. Some 70s-trendy things, like when she got a wok and developed the habit of making what we called "stir-fried leftovers." Sloppy Joes out of a can, beefaroni, and frozen tacos were real treats. Occasionally she would attempt something out of Julia Child for a dinner party. We had fondue once or twice a year. Dinner out occasionally was old-school Chinese (Moon Palace, Yenching Palace) or fancy old-fashioned French. And then in the late 70s the first Ethiopian restaurant opened in DC and our horizons expanded considerably. [/quote]
