Reply to comment by 1800TurdFerguson in The 100 Very Best Restaurants in Washington, DC (full list) by lynsea

It’s only included because it’s 3*, if it was a BG or anything like that it’d be a VA restaurant and Washingtonian wouldn’t be claiming it as DC.

So we just need to convince Michelin to take away its stars. I’m on it.

Didn’t say that, but it’s strictly speaking not a DC restaurant. It’s not even a DMV restaurant, along with a bunch on that list.

I mean where do we stop? Delaware? West Virginia? Do we start claiming restaurants in downtown Manhattan?

You misunderstand me. I agree with you, and am sarcastically suggesting we campaign to get the stars pulled, so that it’s no longer on the DC lists.

Who else is claiming it? Richmond? Baltimore?

No? Then I don’t have an issue with it on the DC list.

The Shenandoah region would be the easy answer here.

Oh yes. All those magazines making lists of the Top 100 Shenandoah Region restaurants. Would hate to step on their turf.

I didn't realize that geographical designations also included "does a magazine feature them in a dining feature." I'll be sure to keep that in mind for your future pedantry.

I think it claims it’s a Washington restaurant, which is technically true

There’s no non- DC restaurants in the MG—not even non-DC but still within the beltway.
