We just got back from Casa Oaxaca and, wow, I just had to show you. From the perfection of the guacamole to the churros w/ cinnamon, I am beyond excited to have visited this restaurant in 2009 ;). Thanks for the surprise, Dawn, you look beautiful! Happy New Year everyone!
See the ReadysetDC post from this morning--including the menu!--before visiting tonight's official opening! My who's who in just a bit.

One of reasons why we love U Street corridor. We stopped by the 14th Street Farmers' Market to find a costume contest, for both kids and adults, organized by a collection of DC food bloggers (see the invite: Adventures in Shaw). Among the prizes: Biago Chocolate and Saint Ex gift certificates. Fun!

"Two shots of espresso with chocolate topped with whip cream and an orange peel" - a great way to start Halloween! The Busboys staff made my morning--wearing really unique costumes! Tonight, a costume contest at 8pm -- good prizes, check it out! :).

Today, U Street Cafe launches their Facebook fan page. Become one of their first fans!
I want you to love U Street Cafe as much as I do. Here are three reasons why you should become a fan of this local coffee shop, a recent addition to U Street.
You didn't hear it from me. Rumor has it that U Street Cafe is considering a coffee loyalty program. By becoming a fan, you will be the first to know about this and other programs the coffee shop plans to offer, such as happy hours and events.
For the last few weeks, I've been documenting the progress that Joel Bergner has made at U Street Cafe. The mural strikes anyone coming in. It is inviting and warm. See photos of Joel's mural on 14th and U Streets.
My visit to Creme, just across the street, made me consider why I waited so long (half an hour to be seated) for a waffle that U Street Cafe could have made for me within minutes.
This week, bloggers discussed the issue of vacant U Street storefronts. Plus, times are tough. I invite you to support local non-branch businesses like U Street Cafe because they are aware of the market and want to succeed. What sets them apart? They want to succeed with you in mind. They are listening.
You are invited to make this creative space social. Start by become a fan!U Street Cafe is located at 1301 U Street NW. See their menu here.Comments [0]

I'm at U Street Cafe for the first time. I need the energy! I'm working all day, today and tomorrow, on freelance projects. I don't want clients ringing my neck on Monday ;). Ran into art bloggers Philippa and Becky-- delighted to see Becky back in DC!
