A quick update on the poll:

The preferred date so far is Wednesday August 25 and the leading venue is Jack Rose. I will not make a decision just yet however that is the status of the vote so far.

When did we list all our fav DC restaurants? I'm trying to find the time frame we discussed it but having no luck. It was just a month ago, right?

Trying to plan Anniversary dinner.

Can't remember when in the thread this was, but here are some anniversary-level restaurants I've been to and would recommend:
- Iron Gate (all around one of my favorite restaurants, consistently good food, reasonably priced and a really cool space)
- Kinship
- Punjab Grill (just had this last weekend, inventive dishes and cocktails, try the Malabar sea bass)
- Anju (a little more casual but very elevated food)
- Tabard Inn (only had brunch there but I assume dinner would be just as good)
- Sushi Ogawa (for omakase)

Got reservations at Blue Duck Tavern for next Saturday.
Blue Duck Tavern brings me back a
lot of bad memories for me. Got dumped by a girl in person instead over a text or a phone call. I asked why the F in person and her response was that it would have been rude to do it any other way. Sorry for sidetracking.

Anyways, anyone here wear Boonie hats? I have a big freaking head and cannot wear baseball caps.

I wear a boonie hat when kayaking, boating, or at the beach. I have a Tilly Endurable that has lasted forever. I have a few others like an old desert camo one I wore in Iraq. Only piece of military gear I ever wear.

Actually, she did the right thing. Always choose the hard right over the easy wrong.
