DC is probably one of the better cities for food if i'm being honest.

It's not as stupid priced to live in as LA, sanfran, or NYC, it's got a much more "small" city feel due to the building height limits in the city. Suburbs north and west of the city are all great areas for restaurants, and work opportunities, as well as good public schools.

Not to mention you're only a ~2-3 hour train ride to NYC, and an overnight train to chicago if you're into that thing. Not to mention 2 easily accessible airports, with BWI not being too much further.

It's def in the top 10 best foodie cities in the US.

>> No.13153189 [DELETED] 

>>13153179
actually the food in the far nw part is not really as good as more deep in the city

like yes the neighborhoods are safer but if u dont have a car public transit options are less and the food is more boomer-geared

>an overnight train to chicago if you're into that thing

my friend did that and said never to try it

theres lots of government pork money and it fuels a lot of restaurants with decent concepts compared to other cities

>my friend did that and said never to try it
depends how he did it, I'm a $ fag and i always get a private bedroom. Comfy af. No security to fuck with, personal attendant that fetches you whatever newspaper you want for when you wake up. etc.

Also, I was referring to the suburbs to the west and north of the city, so Reston, Arlington, Bethesda, Potomac, Silver Spring, Columbia, etc.

>> No.13153237 [DELETED] 

>>13153217
That's kinda pricey tho.

I avoid flying where possible because security is a hassle. I like carrying ice water with me when I travel. They don't accommodate that at all.

Train is like 15 hours or something.

I know but even then the food is not quite as good.

Like your options are more spread out and maybe you have LOTS of one kinds of food like Korean, but then very few good American food or other options.

Best food concentration is between downtown and like where it starts to turn into single family homes along 16th, south of there.

>Train is like 15 hours or something.
Well yeah that's why you do it overnight.

Train leaves at 4pm, arrives in chicago the next morning around 8:45-9am.

You have dinner and breakfast on the train. It's really not even THAT expensive. You can get a roomette for ~$300 each way, or a full bedroom for ~$425-800 each way. About 3-8x the cost of a $100 coach fare, but miles beyond in comfort and privacy, since the sleeper carriages are all passed the far end of the dining car where coach peasants can't wander through.

If it's not a spur of the moment trip you can generally find bedroom/roomette pricing close to the low end of what i said, about $285 for a roomette and around $425 for the bedroom. But holidays and trains that are already heavily booked will make bedroom prices go upwards of $600 sometimes, so a rooomette is sometimes what i end up with instead for half of that.
