   Seafood:  Kinkead's at 2000 Pennsylvania Avenue
   Jewish Deli:  Carnegie Deli at Tyson's Corner, Va
   Pizza:  who knows?  You could try Generous George's Positive Pizza Place
		 in Alexandria.  It's right up there in quality, with a fun
		 atmosphere.
   Chinese:  depends who you talk to.  Try the dim sum at Fortune in Bailey's
		   Crossroads, Va, or Mr Yung's in Chinatown.  There's a place in
		   the mall at Tysons II that, if you order FROM THE CHINESE MENU,
		   is sublime.  I think it's called Hunan Lion.
   Breakfast:  try the Royal Diner in Alexandria.  I may have the name wrong, 
			but it's close.
   Thai:  Many really good ones.  One that leaps to mind is Busara in Glover Park,
		on Wisconsin Avenue about 1 mile north of Georgetown.

   Bon appetit.


The Carnegie Deli is OK, nothing like the one in NY.  I think a much
better Jewish Deli style place is the Celebrity Delly in Falls Church
on Arlington Blvd.
