Just a few odds and ends today.
Wheaton Calling are back from vacation with good news: Royal Mile has found a new owner! Wheaton Calling have done a great job of keeping on top of that story. Their post is here.
Thayer Avenue posted the menu for Silver Spring’s new State Burger Lounge. Haven’t read any reviews yet, but I’m interested to see how it will compare with Ray’s and Quarry House. The post can be found here.
Cutting Edge Creativity had a good meal at Woomi Garden. I’m yet to try this place, but I intend to do so soon. Her review can be found here.
She also reviewed Color Music Studio, located on University Avenue. I went once during the week just to check it out. The place was pretty empty, but it looked like it could be a lot of fun. There were two people sitting at the bar talking and the karaoke was all set up in the main bar area. They also had a couple karaoke rooms for rent. The drinks were EXPENSIVE and the bartender did not know how to make a Jack and Coke. I asked about the karaoke and they tried to charge me to sing a song. I declined, but then they changed their mind and let me sing. I finally settled on a song and the man told me that they only have older songs. Like 80’s and older. I chose “Rock You Like a Hurricane” by the Scorpions. The private karaoke rooms look great, however. You pay $30/hour and you can order food and drinks. They serve Korean fried chicken, which definitely interests me. I think if you were to pregame before hand at Limerick and then walk over and sing karaoke, that would be an amazing night. Cutting Edge Creativity’s review is here.
Wheaton got some love from Eater DC a few weeks back, Jonathon Copeland, former chef at Palena Cafe, revealed that his favorite place for El Salvadorian food is Juanita’s Kitchen. I think I walked inside once and was intimidated because at the time I was still new to the area. I’m going to check this place out. The review is here.
Wheaton Patch reported that Tastee Diner won the award for best late night meal in Silver Spring, Wheaton, Kensington, and Takoma Park. I like Tastee Diner, but for a late night meal I’d rather head over to Hollywood East Cafe. That story can be found here.
In addition, Wheaton Patch recently wrote a great post about Irene’s Pupusas III. We are very lucky to have such good pupusas in the area. That post can be found here.
Been There, Eaten That enjoyed the food at Jewel of India. I’ve been hearing really great things about the place. The review is here.
FoodiePop had a great time revisiting Ren’s Ramen. Read the review and see the great pictures here.
More to come soon!
Thanks for the mentions. I appreciate it. 🙂
No problem, your blog has some really cool reviews. I need to check out some of those Korean places in Beltsville.
Thanks a lot! And please do let me know how your eating experiences go. 🙂
