    Cap City is closed unfortunately.
    My shop, Som Records, is two blocks from Ben's (still kicking) at 1843 14th Street NW. I'm open 12-9 tomorrow.
    Lots of good eats close by. Saint-Ex (next door to my shop) has great food and a nice patio. Alero at 13th and U has great Mexican food. Loads of new spots on U as well.
    Adams Morgan (only 4 blocks west) has even more options. Brazilian, Ethiopian, Peruvian and more.
    My cell is 202-907-8586 is you get stuck somewhere.

    There are a bunch of restaurants around where Neville C's store is. And Ben's chili bowl is just a couple of blocks away.

    Som Records

    Living in Baltimore and popping down to DC every month or so, I'm amazed at how quickly the U Street area changed. That's some major gentrification there. Ben's Chili Bowl is still a great spot, tho.
