After dinner at Marvin at 14th and U, Lara and I ascended to the upstairs bar, where we had a few drinks and watched Friday night unfurl on the street below.

Marvin is a culinary tribute to the two years DC’s Marvin Gaye spent in Belgium. I had the country-fried chicken and waffles over collard greens. Awesome.

Friday nights have become a DC tradition with me and Lara. It’s our date night. She picks a different restaurant each week, where we meet to eat and unwind. It definitely gives me something to look forward to during the weekday grind.

‘This man is dead, but I think you can save the hash browns’

My friend Guy has started a blog called Waiter Later. It’s well written. Witty. Amusing. And it gives an inside look at what must be one of the world’s toughest jobs: waiting tables. My favorite post so far is one about a customer who bites off his tongue and dies during Guy’s shift. While our hero couldn’t do much to save the customer, his efforts to salvage the hash browns are admirable. Check out Waiter Later. Do it now.
