The Mediterranean Cafe. The chicken is great. Best Hummus I've ever had." Now *that* is a recommendation worth following up! Anyone know anything about this new Mediterranean Cafe? Apparently this is not the one in Alexandria, nor the one in Tenleytown. Fri Aug 06 10:31:30 -0700 2004 0 Marty L. 1 920348 A bit of googling indicates that it is the new name of Cafe Poulet. The only review of Cafe Poulet on this Board appears to be Ilaine's of a couple of weeks ago, and her take on it was decidedly less complimentary than Gillian Clark's. Any other perspectives? Fri Aug 06 10:39:36 -0700 2004 920345 0 Marty L. 2 920350 Yes, it is Cafe Poulet...I've never been & have always been wary because of a lack of positive reviews. I'd be willing to try it now.

Had the rotisserie chicken salad which was filled with all sorts of goodies. Made me want to order a whole rotisserie chicken, but I haven't been back. A good option for the area.
