Happy birthday, Mom.
The Saturday after Thanksgiving might be the worst night of the year to try to get a table in Bethesda. After eating Turkey for two days everybody’s apparently looking to get out of the house. Not to mention that they’re exhausted by fighting over bargains all day, as evidenced by the every-man-for-himself attitudes in the [...]
A word of advice about La Tasca in DC. We’ve been there a couple of times now, both at the bar and at tables. Here’s my advice: sit at the bar. The two waiters we’ve had just didn’t seem to understand the ’service’ aspect of their job. Maybe in a month they’ll be either better [...]

The company said its VendView system uses its Cellemetry network and will allow customers to monitor their machines for inventory levels and other information; Numerex has been testing the service in Mexico. Company officials said it [...]
If you’re downtown near the MCI Center you might want to check out La Tasca, one of the latest restaurants to open on 7th Street. It’s the third tapas place to open within a couple of blocks of the arena, joining Jaleo and Zaytinya.
Talk to Steph, one of the managing partners, or our new [...]
Take last night, for instance. They’ve had 4 days without a game and had the Panthers on home ice. They took 22 (!) shots in the first, but could only get ‘da biskit’ past Lluongo once. (Jagr finally gets a goal.)
Then they got sloppy on defense (again) and let Huselius loose in front. 1-1.
