Swahili Village :ehh:

One of the better run African spots in the area.

Need to manage their late night party scene though. No need to have the restaurant still lit when the lounge is peaking.

Waitresses stacked tho :whoo:

Naija gotta hold this L. Kenyans pushed the culture forward. Ain’t no Naija spots in the DMV touching Swahili :snoop:

Is that restaurant in Beltsville/Laurel area?

I had a very interesting experience last time I was using the green line a couple of weeks ago at Pethworth.

In the fukking station some migo teens were letting it flock:francis:

I just minded my business and kept watching whatever I was watching on YouTube. And promptly got the fukk out the station before transit and Met police came and caught the 79 bus.:hubie:

One thing I like Europe for is their respect of public spaces. Like dudes won’t be on the train blasting music or shouting at the top of their lungs while disturbing the cart for others.

Traffic in this area is just getting out of control. It’s round the clock now
Yep. And it's going to be worse when Amazon is up and running.

My job just changed the core hours. Can't leave before 3 pm, it used to be 2:30 pm. I would leave at 2:25 on the dot.

Although they did give exemptions to people who need kids picked up. Since I don't have any I can't use it smh...some people were just lying.

Apparently there was a shooting at 9th and U-Street this past Saturday during HU Homecoming. I wonder if subsequent Homecomings will get stronger police presence.

Was at G'Town yesterday to get my phone fixed at the Apple Store. While waiting on the repair, I met the most boule ass nikka at this one Thai restaurant. Dude was hilarious in that he was so absorbed in himself and status it was comical little things like:

"Ohh no, we couldn't move to Bethesda. We have to be at the center of action and nightlife. Bethesda is just too far away. Now Arlington, we could do"
"There were a lot of Pookie and Ray-Rays around that brought down the home value" :mjpls:

"Ohh yes, the shops, the shops. Always something to buy when you need that retail therapy"

Married to a Filipina by the way.

Anyway, he'd put me on to some game about G'Town and the changing landscape. He said retailers are struggling in G'Town. As a whole, the area isn't what it used to be. U-St and AdMo really ate into it's clientele. Now G'Town is "come for lunch/brunch" and be out by 8pm. He also said the real-estate in that side of town has slowed down big time (he has a general contracting firm).

I exchanged contacts with the dude still. This game is all about connections. :ld:

I digress, the opportunity for DC and the larger DMV if definitely East of 16th and the Anacostia River. This Purple line is also gonna be a game changer. They've started construction in New Carrollton and have cleared some land at the CP station.


Thinking about moving to SS.

Where do I need to be to lengthen my time away from cacs?
