    This was a really cool little event in downtown silver spring. I've been in the area for about 3…read moreyears and I always seem to be out of town or forget about it until this year! I went to about 6-8 locations along Fenton, Thayer ave, and Georgia Ave. The restaurants I tried were as follows: Ruang Kong tai cuisine (Thai) Roger Miller (West African) Italian kitchen ( pizza/ Italian) Society (American/ Caribbean) Pete's (Pizza) Edible Arrangements (fruit/ chocolate) Abyssinia (Ethiopian) Everyone had small plates or some type of great deal. The most amazing thing I tried came from Ruang Kong Ta Cuisine. They would get the gold star of the day for their mango and sticky rice. It was the last thing I ate and was very refreshing after putting my palate through such a rigorous task! The most out of the box thing I tried was the peanut butter chicken from Roger Miller. There jollof rice was good and curried chicken was flavorful. The worst thing I tried was the turnover from Abyssinia. I've struggled trying to eat Ethiopian food but I didn't enjoy the food I tried. Overall it was a beautiful event with various music artist around different areas in downtown for our listening enjoyment.

    A good idea poorly executed. The "tastes" are not designed to be eaten out of hand as one strolls…read moreto the next venue, and would be better with smaller portions and prices. Yelp's stage was about as far as possible from the center of the action, which I consider a snub to an event sponsor.

Okay, so at eight thirty in the evening, the last thing I need is sugary food, or coffee unless it is decaf. Exception being, a Yelp Elite event. I do enjoy these doughnuts, we sampled four flavors: pumpkin pie, Oreo, chocolate with raspberry drizzle, and my favorite, cinnamon sugar. Then we were offered the opportunity to create our own doughnut, or order from the menu. I ordered a maple doughnut with chocolate drizzle. I also had some of Mike B's cider, which was great on a cool night. There were also some games like Jenga and Cards vs. Humanity (my favorite). I cannot wait for the opening of the location on Quince Orchard, that way I can stop by on my way to work! Thanks Mike, Lily, and the Duck Donuts staff for all the hard work put into this!

The atmosphere here is almost always energetic and anyone looking to explore downtown Silver Spring should start here before venturing out towards the various shops, theaters, and restaurants in the area. The restaurants in the area (in between Georgia Ave. and Fenton St.) range from the expensive to the moderately priced. Just about anyone can grab a bite to eat here. From pho to fries, the choices in cuisine are expansive. Looking to do some shopping? City Place mall can be accessed from the plaza, as well as shops such as DSW, Borders, and the Ann Taylor Loft which are located outside of the mall. Feeling like seeing a movie? Check out the Majestic where there are always a large number of movies playing at any given time. Don't like the new stuff? Well there's always the AFI Silver Theater where you can catch Hitchcock classics and the like. The most stunning thing about the Plaza is the fountain. Symbolizing the actual silver spring that was discovered in the area (thus giving Silver Spring its name), the fountain is a place where parents bring their children to cool off during the summer, and provides everyone else with a soothing sensation only flowing water could give you. The only down side to the plaza is the amount of obnoxious high schoolers that can situate themselves throughout the plaza at any given time (mostly at night). But then again, that's anywhere and it's not too bad unless you're trying to watch a movie at the Majestic. The food is great, the shops are plentiful, the parking is ample, and the Metro is close. Don't miss out on such a wonderful public space to spend a day or an evening. P.S. The Downtown Silver Spring Summer Concert Series and the Farmer's Market are also situated in this wonderful Plaza.

    This is a great new development in Silver Spring. Perfect for outdoor events and a true centerpiece…read moreof the neighborhood. Thanks to the County!

The one drawback: pricey to own or rent, though with its location, real estate here is considered to be relatively recession-proof. Living here for the past 15 years has offered my family the best of both worlds - tree canopies, wooded area, a walkable neighborhood, the river and hiking along the canal nearby, a fabulous park dedicated to the arts (complete with artist yurts), all less than three miles from the DC-MD line. The boundaries of the tiny, sliver of a town - its total area is just 0.10 square miles -- are the Potomac River (with Cedar Island and Chautauqua Island between the town and the full river) and MacArthur Boulevard forming the long sides of the rectangle; the short side at one end is close to Wilson Lane, with an entrance to Clara Barton Parkway at the other. The centerpiece of the town is the historic Glen Echo Park (originally an amusement park where Glen Echo residents and their neighbors protested for desegregation). A gorgeous Dentzel carousel, fully restored, graces the park, which is now part of the National Park Service. There are year-round classes and more in dance, theater, music, and the rest of the arts. Neighborhood volunteerism is strong, including ongoing commitments to nature preservation and protecting the watershed in the town (Cabin John Creek and Minnehaha Creek both run through Glen Echo). There are regular organized volunteer outings to remove invasive vines that threaten trees, creek cleanups, and removal of non-native plant species. With its own tiny post office snugged into the quaint Town Hall, folk sculptures gracing porches, family-owned businesses including a pharmacy and hardware store, plus easy access to put your kayak into the Potomac or walk along the Canal (where in the springtime you can discover baby ducks), I find it easy to forget you're just a short distance from the hustle and bustle of the nation's capital. The town's geographical neighbors are Bannockburn, Cabin John, and the Potomac River - all good company. So's the occasional little newt or box turtle I find wandering in my yard. Abundant deer, bunnies, and foxes make appearances as well, and if you sleep with your windows open, you might be lucky enough to have the hoots of owls make you chuckle before bedtime. (If you're unlucky, during mating season you might be kept up for hours by horny - not horned - owls.) Schools for the area in some of the best in all of Maryland: Bannockburn Elementary, Pyle Middle School, and Walt Whitman High School. My kiddo thinks it's the "best place to live, ever!" 'Nuff said.

Good thing Rockville is only served by the Metro red-line, 355, and the ICC: those reasons alone take Rockville out of my normal transit path. And 355...man...that thing is a PITA (pain in the ass). Drivers zooming by like maniacs or putt-putt-putting along in the left lane on their iPhone like a moron. Quite frankly getting there by the ICC is also a PITA. Though the speed limit is 60 mph and traffic was moving, cops were everywhere and the little overhead ezpass scanners look ominous. I went there and came back to Bowie on it though. Rockville. I don't have to come here often, but it is honestly really fine when I do. It is just another homogeneous suburb (somehow culturally diverse, though) that is difficult to get to and get around in except by car. Don't listen to me. Go ahead and go there. But it is A-OK.

    Songkran Festival serves hands down the best food of all the festivals the area holds every year…read more The festival celebrates the Thai New Year, which is the 13-15 of every April. Unlike all the other festivals such as Fiesta Asia, Adams Morgan Day Festival, Fiesta DC, Greek Festival, etc, Songkran is catered mainly to Thais and actually serve very authentic Thai food. There are all kinds of food that you won't find in area Thai restaurants. One of my favorites is the Nam Kao Tod, which is a huge seasoned ball of rice, pork and tripe, fried, then broken up and mixed with chili, lime juice, red onions and cilantro. It is entirely street food but unbelievably flavorful. The Sakoo Sai Moo, tapioca flour balls filled with pork, is also fantastic. The lady that sells the Nam Kao Tod also makes papaya salad fresh from scratch, which is a must if you're a fan. I would also suggest getting there early to get in line for the stall that sells the different kinds of meat braised in a big pot because they tend to run out by 1pm. Another stall sells grilled squid on skewers that look delicious but they are so popular that they tend to under-cook the squid so in my opinion it is not worth waiting in line for half an hour for. For people that are not adventurous, there are 2-3 stalls that sell grilled chicken/beef/pork on a stick, which I think are not worth getting. For dessert, one stall sells little balls of fried sweet potatoes that are divine. And you can never go wrong with mango sticky rice. Food is reasonably priced, for most dishes you pay $5 and get quite a bit of food. There are also stalls that sell Thai music, movies, clothing and accessories. The stage in the center of the festival has performances of Thai dances and Muay Thai.
