    Boccato, by the Whole Foods on Wilson Blvd. They have comfy couches. Love that place. Might stop by on Friday.

    That place has changed so much over the years. It was a small grocery store that added gelato and slowly the gelato/coffee/empanadas took over and no more groceries :-)

    On mission in Kenya until August but based in DC! I live in Dupont. I love Northside Social as well. I am also a big fan of the coffee at Soho.

    Northside Social is yummy, but the place I miss most in that area is Ray's Hellburger. I used to lunch there all the time when I worked in the area. Five Guys and Shake Shack in Dupont just aren't the same.

    My family and I will be moving to DC in June. Keep up the conversation about places to go, we're thinking of renting in Falls Church.

    We have had so much snow and ice this last month, I wish I was in Southern California :-)

    Have you tried Spike's Good Stuff Eatery near Eastern Market? Those are 100% my favorite burgers in the DMV, followed closely by The Counter in Reston Town Center.

    I totally agree Becky. I have lived in Arlington since 1998 but I get into DC at least weekly for a run. Also love all the great places to eat in DC.

    We're moving from FL. My husband is going a couple of months before me, and I'll join him after the kids get out of school. Even though I know it's been a harsh winter for the DC area I am looking forward to living in place with four seasons again.

    I'm about 5 miles from the DC border in Maryland. I work in the Rockville area, but spend most weekends downtown doing all of the things. <3 DC restaurants, esp the brunch scene. I can't wait for the lovely weather to return so that we can eat outside again!
