The Tombs

It's about high time that I mentioned the Tombs on this blog! Although I haven't been in D.C. for too long, it seems that the Tombs is beloved to the point that it's become an institution here. Conveniently located a stone's throw from the gates, it serves up a nice selection of comfort/bar foods that are for the most part, fairly good and inexpensive. More than anything, it's a restaurant as solid as the brick walls that house it...the vegetarian ravioli is probably the closest you'll get to an exotic dish on the menu, if you get what I mean :P

One last note before the photos...it kills me that all the waiters/matronly waitresses wear cute little bow ties.

Behold the cheeseburger in all of its cheesy glory! This thing was such a monster I felt like I had to eat it before it ate me.

Gosh this photo makes me hungry...

The buffalo chicken sandwich.

Derrick's steak as he makes the first stab (Et tu Brute?!)

Gumbo?

Frank claims that this is a salad...but aren't salads supposed to have more greens than toppings? To tell the truth, I don't even know what this is a photo of...

Salt and Pepper stand tall!

Group shot without Michael who is unfortunately the one behind the camera :(

**Photo props to Derrick!**
