I was at Pizzeria Paridisio in Georgetown on Saturday night. Its cheap and the pizza is pretty good. If you're ever around M street and are hungry I'd check it out.

I had red lobster last night. It was pretty good. The biscuits are good.

Pratik, sounds like you're always in G'town. Do you drive your coupe there? I can't stand the roads in that area, so I always take the beeter there. Any Loudon folks care to chime in? I've enjoyed Lightfoot each time I've been, but I hear I really need to try "tuskies" (Tuscarora Mill) - is it much better?

Not too often. On Saturday I did take the coupe however. I agree, driving down M or even Wisconsin is a complete nightmare. I was doing my best Andretti impression to avoid all potholes.

Puria, yeah it was raining pretty hard but we got there around 9 and then it started to pour.

I'm not a big fan of redlobster but when i do go there the food is good. Same thing with Olive Garden. I have the cheesecake factory because they just suck in food period except for the cheesecakes. I eat a lot of thai and chinese food. And I love steak. All different styles even hibatchi style. Tokyo Inn in Springfield is pretty good. But I haven't been there in many months. Maybe a year?

I like Cheesecake Factory.

BTW, on a side note - has anyone ever had Soju before??? I was introduced the first time on Saturday and man, I loved it. I will definitely be going back to any Korean places to have some more!!

No, I dont like sake but Soju is a kind of alcohol mixed in with a juice I think? Either way, I could drink it like it was water and it was 25% alcohol mixed with a little juice. Pretty crazy. You take it in shot glasses. I didnt get drunk off of it but it tasted so good you dont even know you're having 25% alcohol.

So it's kinda like a breezer but you drink it in shot glasses. I've gotta try it when I have some korean bbq.

I dont think breezer's are that strong? I'm not sure. I'd think girls would love it because you dont taste any alcohol. I wonder if I can buy a bottle of it on my own and mix it? If I could, I'd be making Soju drinks all the time.

What flavor of Soju did you have? I usually drink lemon. Bubble gum is just downright strange. It's really good to drink it with some Haemul Pajun or Ojingo... Where'd you go - a restaurant or cafe? Annandale is loaded with them.

I had White grape soju. I asked the bartender what to get and she said it was the most popular. A bottle of it was around $25 or so and that wasn't bad at all. I went to a place called Options in Rockville - behind White Flint Mall and off of Parklawn Dr. I think. I don't know how popular it is, it was my first time and we were probably the only non-Korean's there. I'll be going back though sometime...
