The concession food is miserable (think dry chicken puck on a plain bun), but the beer selection isn't too awful.
Do not stand in the middle of the busy road to take a photo, tourists!
Honestly better than the one on 14th. Not as crazy crowded, so they have time to give more attention to the food. Best food near UMD.
Good place to go to escape the conference crowds during lunch. Burning Brock was great and not overly spicy. Fennel was a nice touch.
Great food. Recommend the bacalao and sweetbreads. Of course, the jamon is great, but they didn't carve it right--left the outer fatty rind on, which isn't very pleasant.
Extremely interesting book curation here. Really very unique in what it stocks, even among independent bookstores.
They really really love flowers here. Which is good, because I don't. But they will pick out the right things, make special orders and even get excited about it.
This is some of the best brisket in the country, and I have literally eaten at the top rated BBQ joints in the U.S.
Get a locker early before they run out. And then check out the zoomazon slides, the halfpipe, and tornado!
The water is cloudy, but don't think about it. There's so much chlorine that you're fine.
If you love rollercoasters but hate the huge wait times at other parks, this is perfect. You can easily ride every coaster in the park in a day--no wait was over 15 minutes.
Great rollercoaster that cuts right to the chase--looping upside down as much as possible.
A small coaster with individual spinning carts, not a train. Good for more timid riders.
The first two drops are nearly free-fall and you'll rise slightly out of your seat. Fantastic ride.
This is an approximately 1 second ride. You go to the top and free fall to the bottom, while cursing.
If you're wearing flip flops, either take them off or prepare to lose them. The canvas covering over the line is littered with them.
One of the top rides at the park. The launch is the best part! 0-60 in three seconds.
Perhaps the best park in DC. Also, it's fun to watch teenagers skateboard in the waterfall during winter.
The vendors inside can get just about any meat product you want, from genuine jamon iberico de bellota to whole sheep heads.
Honestly, not bad. The micheladas are actually spicy and the pico is made well. The meals are a little too salty, but flavorful overall. Not complete tourist mush.
