Note to self: don't tell Slim about the new banana donut store.

LAN3 thinks I have a guacamole-dip-style class-action against the Big Wasabi conglomerate.
Speaking of wasabi, the Farragut Square kaiten (conveyor-belt-sushi) restaurant Wasabi opened this summer, and provides marginally acceptable sushi, though with substandard service. Rather overpriced for what one gets (Sushi Taro is much better for not much more), but one is paying for convenience and somewhat higher quality than the sushi rolls at the deli. The takeout is perhaps a better option (though with a very narrow selection), especially now that Naan and Beyond has raised its prices. Two other kaitens have opened up in the last year (including one in Ballston), but I haven't been yet.
Separately, Tyler gives a rave review to India Curry House in Clarendon. I had gone the first week it was open, and was so underwhelmed that I felt too sad to bad-mouth it. I guess I'll have to try it again.
