What bookish flavor combo would YOU fill it with? The New Yorker points us to the Facebook group People for a library-themed Ben & Jerry's flavor!

Clockwise from top left: Peking Inn; A Salt & Battery Fish and Chips; Just Falafs; Lox, Stock and Bagel. From Best Week Ever. Washington D.C. hosts a respectable amount of pun-inspired restaurants, especially in the Thai food domain. Thaiphoon, Mai Thai, TenPenh (located on 10th Street and Penn. Avenue), and Leo DiCaprio's favorite tom yum soup source, Thai Tanic.
