Was this where Barrel and Crow is now? I know I used to go to Tel Aviv but can’t quite picture it.

What was the sushi place that had conveyor belt sushi? It always smelled musty but the sushi was good.

Also, does anyone remember Chico Rico in the Rosslyn Metro stop? They made sour cream burritos. They were to die for.

DavidCraig was the best fine dining I’ve ever had in Bethesda

Fresh Grill had the best burgers (had to close when the builders of the new apt building next door damaged the foundation of their building)

Freddy’s Lobster and Clams was the best place for New Englander to get a beach seafood fix.

Also a tip to Le Vieux Logis which was old school French but did it well and just closed.


We loved going to Freddy’s after Friday soccer. Sad when it closed.

That was a great place!

I don’t remember it being greasy but Parker’s? Was that the name of a restaurant in Bethesda?

Yes.

Sigh.


Dickie’s! So delicious.

And if we’re talking about “North Bethesda” too, I miss Montgomery Donuts.
