Original chili half-smoke - Ben's Chili Bowl
Pork and beef dog, mustard, onion and chili, served with potato chips. $5.95
Potato salad. $2.60
Ben’s Chili Bowl, Washington DC

This is a DC classic, so I had to try it! It was certainly different. I can’t say that I’ve had a hot dog with mustard and chili on it at the same time. It tasted oddly good. I’m not sure I’ll go back for another since it seemed way to unhealthy (even for me, lol), but it was worth trying once. This place is certainly popular though!

Mashed potatoes, French beans, and green peppercorn sauce. $28
Senart’s Oyster & Chop House, Washington DC

This dish tasted good, but it was a lot of food after an extended happy hour across the street at Ambar. The service here was pretty friendly but they did forget our appetizer order.
