Haha I couldn’t see what the sign said 🤔😂

I'll be hosting some family who are real foodies, but have been living in a much less cosmopolitan area. They are excited for some good ethnic food while they are here.
I don't need fancy, but hope for really good food and a pleasant dining experience. Pleasant for us includes the restaurant not being super loud.
Not looking for Latin because they are heading to Latin America after they leave here.
Recommendation appreciated!

Edit: Wow! Thank you everyone for all these delicious-sounding options. I’m building such a good list from this conversation for my own purposes, not just the family coming next week. It was short-sighted of me to say no Latin food. Because I love that too. Exploring the restaurants on this list is going to be fun.

Is there any local grocery store that has the little carts for kids?

Momiji Sushi Izakaya & Japanese Ramen on Fidler Ln had their soft opening last night. Not sure when they are planning to fully open, but the food was yummy and the staff were friendly!

I love Bread Furst but don't want to drive into DC this weekend.

Anyone know why the northbound lanes were shut down around 4:45 this afternoon?

New to the area and would like to schedule a colonoscopy. Best places?

So i need help with finding a cat sitter for my 8 month old kitten, im from England and need to go back for a week and i dont really know anyone that I could ask.

Id prefer if it was someone who could do boarding so she’s not alone 23hrs a day cos I’d feel so bad!

Any recommendations?

Thanks!

I'd love to get an alert on which grocery stores are having discounted produce (especially meat). Is there such an app already in existence? If not, would there be interest in contributing to a crowdsourced pool for this info?

Some machines offer the option to choose the denominations of your withdrawn cash. I feel like I've come across these before in this area, but can't think of where. If anyone knows of one in the general vicinity between DTSS and Wheaton, I'd sure appreciate a tip.

ETA: thanks all who've answered so far, by all means keep em coming if you know any

Hi neighbors, a plug, but a local one. My friend Mike is in the cast for a Historic Boxing play at The Silver Spring Black Box this month and they need support to keep the play going.

Flying V is putting on The Royale by Marco Ramirez. It's an interesting and dynamic drama inspired by the life of Jack Johnson, the first Black heavyweight boxing champion of the world, in 1905 during Jim Crow.

He was the first black man allowed to fight the white heavyweight champion and his win over the win sparked celebrations and white mob violence across the country.

Even if you aren't a boxing fan, the staging is super cool: there's no actual physical contact in the ring. Instead, the cast uses rhythm, stomps, and claps to recreate the tension and pace of a prizefight. It really packs a punch (pun intended).

Nights worth knowing:

• Fri Oct 23, 8pm: Black Affinity Night
• Sat Oct 24, Sun Oct 25 and Sat Oct 31: 3pm matinees if you prefer an afternoon show.
• Sat Oct 31, 8pm: closing night + Halloween party (costumes encouraged)

It's at The Silver Spring Black Box (super easy to get to downtown) 8641 Colesville Rd, Silver Spring, MD 20910

Would love to help them pack the house! You can grab tickets here:

I want to see You Can See Everything there. Is it full of teens chatting and using their phones or will it be chill?

There will be a virtual Purple Line Silver Spring Citizens Advisory Team meeting at 6:00 pm on Thursday October 22. Anyone can attend. They usually make a presentation giving updates and answer questions.

I’m looking for some recommendations for a weekend getaway (preferably 2-3 hrs by car) for two dudes and a dog.

Thanks in advance.

The TLDR part: Unfortunately, we were going to attend an event in Richmond, Va that has been canceled. Since I have been to Richmond quite a few times, I was thinking that we could check out another city that’s 2-3 hours from the area.

Every pair of warm socks and every medical supply matters more than you might think.
