Spending 4 days working in Washington DC...the belly of the beast.

Contemplating leaving my hotel and venturing out for sustenance unarmed :leaving

There are dogs and SS everywhere due to some international summit.

Im afraid to even check this forum....

Get out as soon as you can. We'll hold down things here.

M&S Grill and Les Halles around 11th & Pennsylvania NW are really good. Old Ebitt Grill around 14th near Mandarin Oriental Hotel also good. You can probably walk around anywhere North of Constitution and West of 8th St until about 10PM and you'll be fine.

Move quickly and undetected to Rally Point Bravo. Extraction details will broadcast on pre-assigned frequency at the usual time.

Not sure why people are warning against going out after 10. DC doesn't allow anyone but police / SS / Political bodyguards to have guns, so you should be completely safe. :coolgleamA:

I second the recommendation for Old Ebbit Grill.
