[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm French. Coming from Europe, where big cities generally have lots of food options with walking distance of main tourist attractions, the DC food desert near the monuments was a shock when my relatives and I first visited. Now if I'm in the area, I go to the American Indian museum restaurant, the food is half decent, plus I love the building. So yes, I agree with your complaints, OP. DC in general is a very strange capital city. It has a provincial atmosphere - which is nice if you live in NW! [b]But this is why a lot of people in the world still think NYC is the capital of the USA... ;-)[/b] [/quote] So Americans aren’t the only people with ridiculous ignorance when it comes to geography…[/quote] Ha. It’s also funny for someone claiming to be French and saying something so silly when the Eiffel Tower and Parc du Champs de Mars are basically their National Mall equivalent and it’s a big, wide open space where there very little to eat over there either and lots of chintzy touristic souvenir crap with the closest food options are a Starbucks and a Burger King.
