Feasting Famously with Beth Kanter Author of Washington DC Chef’s Table Cookbook dishes about the book and more Beth Kanter is a DC-based author who knows her way around the restaurant scene – from K Street to Bethesda, cookbooks to Michelin guide books; Beth knows the area’s culinary scene very well. Which is why I was surprised at how quickly she responded when I asked about doing this interview.

What would happen if reality shows were based in the District… Survivor – Intern Wars: Tribes of white badged interns compete in a series of challenges (first contestant to actually get around Rayburn wins!). The surviving intern gets upgraded to the ever coveted staff assistant spot. Those who get kicked off the island go back to grad school. Money Metro: WMATA wisely decides to invest in metro cars with flashy disco lighting and lets customers who have been stranded during their commute compete in a trivia challenge to recoup their wasted fare. Cake Boss: Georgetown Cupcake and Sprinkes fight it out like the Sharks and Jets. What Not to Wear – Casual Friday: Just because you have plans after work on Friday doesn’t make that mini skirt and sequined bandeau appropriate. Offending contestants are required to wear overalls the remainder of the workday. The Amazing Race: Happy Hour Contestants bolt from the office at 5pm to try to get the best bar stools and the biggest buzz on before 7pm. Say Yes to the Dress – Pantsuit Pandemonium: Watch as Lohmans and Dress Barn open their doors in a blowout sale. See hair fly when the last matching blazer goes out the door. The Biggest Loser – Electoral College Edition: Poor Mitt.

Congrats to Rachel Holt of Uber DC and Mike Needham of Heritage Action on their wedding earlier this month.  (p.s. don’t forget to wish Rachel a happy birthday this week). h/t Alex Priest
