One thing I’ve noticed since I’ve been in D.C. is there are many different ethnic food restaurants. So a few of my classmates and I decided that we should try different food that we’ve never had before.
Tonight we made a reservation at an Ethiopian restaurant. When we walked into the restaurant the first thing we noticed was there were no tables. There were stools –around a large table-indented like a bowl. All the food was placed in a big bowl-in the “table”. Everyone orders a dish and it’s served in one giant bowl and eaten with your hands with a thin pancake-like bread. It was delicious. It was a very communal meal and it was extremely different from any meal I’ve ever eaten. The food was spicy and their hummus was great! But the atmosphere of the restaurant made the whole experience feel very
“authentic.”
But we are almost halfway done with our time in D.C. and I’m sad to have it pass so quickly. I’ve seen and done a lot while here. But there’s so much more I want to explore.
I have enjoyed your reports from Washington. I think it's a neat program you're a part of and I like that you're doing a blog -- would love to hear about what it's like to try and track down politicians in Washington.
