A friend is interested in trying snake; anyone know of a restaurant
that might have it? I'd imagine it could be had somewhere in the
Southwest (eg: Arizona, not SW DC :-) but I can't think of any place
likely here.

Alligator would be of interest, too. 

Thanks!

I don't know about snake, but, Kangaroo Katie's in the Greenway shopping
center in Greenbelt,MD serves alligator.  I tried it once and it was
nothing special.

Re the availability of snake & alligator in DC:

RT's in Alexandria serves a very tasty Alligator stew.  I have also bought
alligator meat at Fresh Fields in Rockville (at the fish counter).  I suspect
you could get them to order snake for you as well.

Dominique's added a rattlesnake salad to their menu about 10 years ago
(as well as moose nose) but I have no idea if it's still offered.

Strange...I can't remember if I've had 'gator in the DC area...

Everyone says that everyone else says anything they haven't eaten tastes
like chicken.  Hmmmmm...  Makes you wonder about chicken.
