Myron. There are many great resturants in the DC area, but my favorite for hot food is the Cottonwood Cafe in Bethesda. I don't really find anyone who makes "really" hot food anywhere. But I carry a bottle of dried Habs everywhere I go just to make sure. If you want more info LMK and I'll send the address. Don't have it handy right now. Also the resturant is a bit on the pricey side. I've never been there but there is a Mark Miller offering called the Red Sage, downtown near the theaters. I can't speak to the food, but the Coyote Cafe was pretty good. > Will be in DC area for Thanksgiving. Any especially good restaurants or > hot-foods shops I should try to hit while there? I'll probably get to > the MD and VA suburbs, as well as DC proper. > > Thanks (again) in advance! > > Myron
