Food Scene

I think it's actually the best Thai food in the city! The drunken noodle is fantastic and their "secret fried rice" is amazingly delicious -- crave it on a regular basis!

Excellent fried chicken! The larb is also super tasty and full of flavorful spices. Beware of their super-spicy dishes. When they say spicy - it's really spicy! Maketto is unique in that in addition to being a restaurant, they're also a shop with lots of neat finds.

Great bar, but what makes them even more amazing is that they're a great bar also with great food! A great place to go while you're waiting for a table at Toki Underground (the wait can be hours!)

The bar is above Ben's Chili Bowl and owned by them, but they don't share a menu. They have a decent happy hour 5-7.

The Washington Monument offers breathtaking views of the city -- but you have to get there early in order to claim the free tickets to climb to the top! Update Nov 2016 - the monument is closed until further notice due to elevator decommissioning -- will not re-open at least until 2019.

Parks & Nature

Kind of like central park -- a huge park in the center of the city, but with hills and creeks, offering great hikes through the park.

This park is near Nationals Park, the baseball stadium. It's a small park, but it's new and modern, and during the summer they do concerts each and every friday!

Arts & Culture

The building is square shaped, with exhibits all around the perimeter rooms, with an indoor courtyard, which is nice for taking a break and having a chat. A nice museum to just stop into.

Entertainment & Activities

The Verizon Center is home to the Capitals (Hockey) as well as the Wizards (Basketball) if you have time to catch a game. But it's also where many concerts are held. Oh, and the circus.
