Title: need some advise
Post by: walkonby on September 26, 2005, 04:49:00 pm
can anybody out there suggest to me a good restaurant before a fri nationals game?  i need something that is right at a metro stop, or very close to rfk.  someone told me to try near east market.  i need something that is good, but not too sophisto that i can't feel comfortable walking into with the clothes i'm wearing to the game.
 
 and i just had chili . . . so no.

nothing is near rfk.  i'd suggest ugly mug, which is in barrack's row (8th street-eastern market).  if you are lucky, the ghost bus may even decide to stop there that day and give you a free ride to rfk.

i think ghost bus runs on fridays and saturdays and it definitely picks up at ugly mug ... or you could go to one of those cap hill bars on penn. near eastern market and cap. south, ghost bus picks up there too ... best way to go to a game, rockin some van halen on the way over ...

One of the great parts about going to a baseball game is having a stadium hot dog or polish sausage, sure they are a little pricy, but so are convenience fee's that you pay for shows.   :p

i enjoy the italian sausage with onions and peppers. . .or, if you can find it, the chorizo with onions and peppers.  after that. . .i have no opinion on the matter.

I'd actually recommend buying food from the street vendors outside the park - its WAY cheaper and the food is just as good if not better.  Solid hot dogs and cheap drinks (no booze though).

nate's in g-town is my personal fav.  i remember once seeing hookers with a their pimp doing their thing in g-town, right in broad daylight.  i think they like to hit the dean and deluca crowd.
