Have tried fish and chips everywhere. England. Scotland. Wales. Up and down the Atlantic Coast. Still the best anywhere - Captain Frosty's on Cape Cod. Lightly fried, delicate, amazingly fresh fish. Fantastic.

Cheers from Unconventional Diner. First espresso martini I've ever had. Dangerously good. And the burger was delicious, thick, juicy, and came with "sexy sauce." Now in my top 5 for DC.

``Never get so busy making a living that you forget to make a life.'' Much to love about Dolly Parton, including this quote cited at a graduation I attended recently.

With a very nice smoky flavor and topped with applewood smoked bacon, the Backyard Burger at Gordon Ramsey''s Hell's Kitchen DC's Wharf. Good to very good. Only drawback -would have liked a little more beef.
