Well when I first moved to DC several chains I loved weren't here but are here now - Krispy Kreme, Mellow Mushroom and Brueggers Bagels. Love them!

I was thinking the other day that I wish we had:
-Skyline chili. I have only been here once when passing through Ohio. Loved it!

-Jersey Mikes subs

Anyone travel to other states and stumble upon a good franchise that you liked that is not yet in the D.C. area? I know it's a longshot, but thought I would ask for suggestions. Thanks!!


I wish someone would buy Culver's from Wisconsin and Minnesota and bring them to DC. Best burger and shake in a fast food setting anywhere. http://www.culvers.com
