This place is gross.  Iwent against my better judgement and ordered the
special which was "cajan pasta" dish.  Totally disgusting.  It was early
evening and so the managergoing around talking at the tables (a habit
which I think is great in any place).  When he asked me what I thought of
the dish, I told him.  The main point I made was that the sausage tasted
all wrong to be good boudin <sp?>.  At which point he asked what that was. 
I explained and he said he had never heard of it and that to get a
authenic taste they were using Mexican sausage (charezio, <sp>). 

My friend liked his food, but I have a built-in prejudice against any
place that is enslaved to being trendy (cajan this, blacken that) but
are completely clueless about the cuisine.

: There is Seafood/burgers/ABP in 2000 pen
: There is a fairly cheap cafeteria place around 20th and I
: There is a TGI Fridays at 21st and I

Bring a book and expect your order to be fouled up.

My two cents worth.  But if you are willing to go to the far end of M
street, then try the Indian place on the right as you head west. Can't
remember the name but it starts with an A and is on a NE corner of an
intersection.  Great food
