Fri Dec 05 05:48:50 -0800 2008 181498 littlew1ng 1 4222390 you can eat light at busboys and poets on 14th. That Duffy's irish bar has surprisingly good food. The FASTEST in the area won't be light (Ben's).

Excellent cheap Greek food. I've had worse at three-times the price. There's also Dan the Man's Teriyaki and Subs, 1936 9th St NW. Good cheap Korean food, and the subs are tasty. Duffy's is also good, cheap, and quick. Depending on the crowds, Ben's can get slow on a Friday night. Fri Dec 05 07:01:29 -0800 2008 4222380 12359 monkeyrotica 2 4222719 Don't forget about Chix. Fri Dec 05 08:13:20 -0800 2008 4222531 78030 dcandohio 3 4222946 I was going to suggest that too. You could always go to Whole Foods on P and 14th, too. Fri Dec 05 09:22:20 -0800 2008 4222719 18011 Jacey 4 4225224 If you're going that far down, you have Stoney's. Provides a walk afterwards, I guess.
