Now
that is what I am talking about.
Forgive the brief sidetrack into the political realm, but Barack Obama at Ben's Chili Bowl is what it is all about. For those not of a DC persuasion, Ben's is the THE
legendary place to eat around town and has been, hell or high water, holding down a storefront at 12th and U for decades.
Yes, yes, we know that Obama would probably be just as happy dining on a healthy salad, but seeing him attack a Ben's half-smoke (DC's only indigenous foodstuff - a quarter pound beef/pork sausage) done all the way (chili/cheese/onions) is just awesome.
Viva la District of Columbia!
And welcome to town, Mr. President Elect.
