24 in 24: DC – 12:00 PM @ Old Ebbitt Grill

WOW.

I mean. Just wow.

Let me tell you, Kyle Gaffney runs this operation like Patton. Old Ebbit Grill was my favorite restaurant of the first half of the shoot – we were treated like kings from the second we walked in the door. I thought Kyle was going to hit us with a dozen oysters or something – I was dead wrong. We were served the Orca Platter; named for the order’s propensity to feed a killer whale. Our stomachs were assaulted with the entire raw bar at the Old Ebbitt. I wish I had some of the footage of Scotty and I walking away from this place, because even though we soundly whupped the entire two-tiers of seafood, we talked about feeling lighter and more refreshed than we’d felt in the last four hours.

Kyle and The Old Ebbitt Grill win the Holy Bleeping Bleep award for the largest, most impressive single item served during 24 in 24: DC. Thank you, Kyle. Thank you.

Well, if we’re not full, we might as well go get something to eat. How about Julia’s Empanadas?
