[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hmmm. I live in the neighborhood and frequent Millie's on a weekly basis.

[b]So sorry ladies, but the gleefulness about the "MILFies" moniker is kind of gross and also SO not true.  This is a normal/mediocre place with normal/mediocre looking women and men. I've never seen anyone there that is truly stunning and I have been there many, many times.[/b]

Normal looking families and children frequent the place and yes, everyone does know everyone so that is kind of fun! Also nice to let the kids walk to get ice cream and walk to pick up dinner as the neighborhood sorely lacked anything great for a while.

The author's tone was juvenile as were the quotes from 40 somethings who overused the word "like" a la an 80's Valley Girl wanna be.

Golden Goose sneakers are ugly as are Goyard bags.  Also, cross body bags are a definite no no!

Huge fail on all accounts. [/quote]

[b]This really is the funniest part of the piece.  It's not some hot spot in NY or LA where the beautiful people congregate - it's a suburban strip mall restaurant with a patio where people go because of lack of other choices.  The notion that people go there to "be seen" is ludicrous. [/b] [/quote]

Sums up this area, in general, quite nicely.[/quote]

[b]I don't live in DC and have never been to Millies (either one)[/b] but I do know the type of place it is. It's popular among affluent upper middle class people, who keep themselves fit and in shape and dress nicely. I'll agree it won't be glamorous because there's only a handful of places in the whole country where glamorous people congregate (NYC, Miami and LA and few resorty areas). Because it's popular with people who have a comfortable life, and it shows, there will always be those who feel outside and excluded, even if in reality that's not the case at all. [/quote]

+1.  This is a strange and provincial article.  DC isn’t a glamorous city.  There are way more places like Millie’s in other cities such as Dallas, Atlanta, Houston, etc.  [b]Women in DC typically don’t wear high end clothing or carry luxury bags like they do in other cities.[/b]  The journalist most likely has never spent a lot of time in other cities so he or she really thinks Millie’s is unique.

PP's must be just bored?[/quote]

I have newer gotten this vibe from Millie's.  That said, I typically (always) am there for dinner, not the bar scene after 9:00.

Any place that serves Frose (which I had to Google) does seem like it would attract this element, though.  [/quote]

Right, just wondering why people post comments on a place they have never been, in a city where they don't live followed by more sweeping generalizations. Tis dcum [/quote]
