Clyde’s of Gallery Place

Location

Clyde’s of Gallery Place Washington, DC
United States

This is a great place if you are traveling with a large group of people.  The restaurant is two-levels with five dining rooms and a private dining room.  A crowd definitely won’t overwhelm it.  It is in the style of a Victoria-era saloon.  The food is very good but not as great as the Georgetown location.  However, it it’s a great place for dining before a Verizon Center event.

THE best pastries in NYC--probably even outside of Paris.  You might not guess it because of the somewhat bland interior.  Make sure that you get here early in the morning before all of the pastries are sold out.  They really do go fast!  I especially recommend the pain au chocolat.  YUM!!!

Clyde's of Georgetown

Location

Clyde's of Georgetown
3236 M Street, NW
Washington, DC 20007
United States
Phone: 202.333.9180

This is one of my favorite restaurants in Georgetown.  Opened in 1963 this restaurant has been a longtime favorite of locals and tourists alike with great all-American food with a bit of a southern flair.  YUM! The décor is saloon-like with very comfy banquets.  You’ll always find this place packed.

Phone: 212-420-4900

Best place for young adults or teenagers. They have an small outside area to eat. On the menu you will find typical italian food from pasta to pizza. I would recommend the Pizza Polpettine (with baby meatballs). The music is a mix of alternative and rock provided from the public radio station East Village Radio.

Aja Asian Bistro & Lounge

Aja is a great asian bar/restaurant located in the middle east side. With a very cool setting of asian statues and delicious sushi food, it attracts a fun crowd. It is often seen to have people spilling out onto the sidewalk.

Koi Restaurant - Los Angeles

Location

Koi Restaurant
730 N. La Cienega Blvd.
West Hollywood, CA
United States
Phone: (310) 659-9449

Koi is a celebrity hang that although it has a zen-like décor with bamboo, soft light, and many intimate rooms, has an animated night life.  The food is so good.  Try the different sushi rolls or its hot dishes.  The glamour and almost a guaranteed celebrity sighting comes with a large price tag.  Make sure that you make a reservation for the jammed packed hot spot.

Columbus Café: Study Time in Paris

Columbus Café Logo - from Paris

Location

Columbus Café - Paris
21 Rue Soufflot
Paris
France

It's exam season for many Parisian students, which means it's time to hit the bibliotheque, take the cap off the highlighter and crack open that unusually large text book. Well, maybe if it was a couple of years ago the bibliotheques would be swarming with students but we're in the age of Powerbook laptops, and Wi-Fi internet access. Columbus Café has enough seats to huddle together for a group study session and enough chocolat chauds or jus d'oranges to keep you energized.

Pop Burger

Location

Pop Burger
58-60 9th Avenue
New York, NY 10011
United States

Located in the trendy Meatpacking District, Pop Burger brings much more than burgers to the table. By day, they dish out delicious burgers, fries, and shakes (I suggest the "Invisible Burger" which are honestly the best Portobello burger I've ever had), and by night they reveal a luxe back room, which features pool tables, laid-back lounges, and an limited menu full of tasty treats.

This is a perfect place to stop if you are exhausted from a full day of shopping and site seeing.  Pick up a yummy gelato and let your parents grab some coffee.  If the weather is good, why not suggest picking up their pre-prepared food for a picnic?
