Hmm… that’s 45 minutes away but I am sitting on top of metro center, so … maybe. What restaurant was chosen? ---

Thanks for meeting me, An Arky and Mr. Moto. Lunch was yummy. We ate at [Lei Garden](http://www.washingtonian.com/dining/Profiles/leigarden.html) and had dim sum. Good, good stuff. The beef tripe was especially scrumptious. I’ll definitely look you guys up the next time I’m in DC. Thanks for the ride to Union Station, too, Mr. Moto. That was really nice of you. ---

I’ve been there a few times before. I love the Lei Garden. It was nice meeting you both as well. ---

Hey, I had a great time, and Chinatown is only a couple of Metro stops away, so I think if there are any downtown DC dopers that wanna do this sometime. Of course, a happy hour is even better… 😃 BTW, we _just_ missed meeting **Patty O’Furniture** at the Metro…Sorry about that, Patty.
