Really wishing this place will open by the next time I'm in Kenya for work! Any info on where in Nairobi this will be located exactly?

@Spaghetti Memoirs - Glad you had a good time! Chantal is the best.
First Look: Victor Albisu's Del Campo in Washington DC
@zakalwe - Bear in mind that each of those cuts is 10-12 ounces each. There's nothing in the photo to compare it to, but it's actually a very large board and meant for sharing.
So This Exists: Spherified Sake Dai-drop at Daikaya, Washington DC
@ryomuffin - Ah, whoops! Thanks for the correction.

@sobriquet Pho Sate is fantastic! So is Eden Center in general.
Washington, DC: The Flavor-Packed Cheeseburger from Palena Cafe
Hey guys-I agree that that photo does make the burger look pretty raw, but I'm going to have to say it was at least in part due to the lighting. I can attest to the fact that it was actually a warm pink center. I promise Palena won't serve you raw meat. Don't let that photo deter you from trying one of the best burgers in DC!
The Serious Eats Guide To Pizza In Naples
I'm determined to go to Naples within the next 2 years.
Sugar Rush: Mallorcan Ensaimada at Fiola, Washington DC
It's actually a toasted vanilla pastry cream. The toasting gives it a bit of caramelization. I wouldn't have minded a little bacon in there though!
First Look: Epic Smokehouse in Arlington, VA
@smprada, @RegrettableFoodie - OK, maybe not hard to get to. Just a little out of the way. But, as a MD resident, it's kind of a hike! That's my own bias coming through I guess.
A Sandwich A Day: Cubano from the Fast Gourmet Gas Station in D.C.
Thanks, @moca78. Good catch!
Washington DC: Overdue Impressions of DC Staple 2Amys
@Humberto - That's what I was told by the staff.
@Mmmph - Don't get me wrong, I'm also a huge Pupatella fan (featured their montanara back in June). Have to give credit where it's due though - 2Amys is a DC institution.
The 15 Best Things I Ate in Japan
@Where is Lola? @J. Kenji López-Alt - I did have a bunch of other stuff, but I can't lie - I love me some ramen!
The 15 Best Things I Ate in Japan
@b_ob27 Good catch! Fixed.
Kyle Bailey's Couscous from Scratch
@fwilger - The way Chef Bailey does it is just by dipping his fingertips in the water and sprinkling it into the bowl. Just enough to start getting the semolina to clump. If it's not, sprinkle some more. If it's too damp, ease back.
Deep Dish Pies from Washington, DC's District of Pi
Check our Armands's Chicago Pizzeria. There are a few locations around DC, although I've heard that the Tenleytown location is closing.
Deep Dish Pies from Washington, DC's District of Pi
I should have mentioned that!
The deep dish pies are 9 or 12 inches. The thin crust pies are 12 or 16 inches.
I agree, they are a bit pricey.

You guys are right. I've corrected the caption!

Road-Trippers: Where Did You Go and What Did You Eat?
On my third cross country road trip (less food centered than the first two), the notable spots were Uncle John's BBQ in Chicago (rib tips!) and Arthur Bryant's BBQ in Kansas City (burnt ends!).
@Victor - Ah, looks like the address is off. It's the Ginza one definitely. Here's the website: http://sushi-ochiai.com/
Definitely call ahead to make a reservation if you can.
