Have you been to the Everyday Café on Homewood Avenue? I stopped at the cafe on my way to work recently. The Everyday Café is operated by the Bible Center Church. I love the atmosphere of the café. They do not accept cash for safety reasons and they are open from 7 a.m.-3 p.m. I would like to see them hire someone to stand near the busway and let people know they are there. This is a great addition to Homewood Avenue, it is next door to Ahmad Sandidge Photography. If you are in the area please stop by.
The weekend after Thanksgiving I went to Washington, D.C. I was hoping I would be able to visit the new African American Museum, but no luck. I had not seen the MLK Monument in person so that was a treat as was the African Museum. I stayed at a lovely hotel on M Street, the St. Gregory. Our suite was spacious and well appointed. We could actually walk to the White House from our location. While I was in town I went to Ben’s Chili Bowl. This is supposed to be a very popular restaurant. I had the beef hotdogs; they were good, but not over the top. So now that I have been to Ben’s there is no need to go back.
The one thing I found interesting about this most recent trip to D.C. was the stage and media stands for the inauguration are in the process of being built. They seem much smaller in person, but it was exciting to see. I’ve made a list of new restaurants to try. Watch this space for the review.
