UPDATE: Norm’s Beer and Wine will stay in Vienna – State of NoVa, The Post
The grassroots/social media effort to save Norm’s Beer & Wine has paid off. The landlord of Danor Plaza, Norm’s longtime home, had offered a lease to Fresh Market that included a non-compete clause. Norm’s would have had to leave when its [...]
FAIRFAX, Va. — The Ombudsman recently moved to Northern Virginia from the Boston area to be closer to WWN operations.* His arrival is good on several fronts, including the bourbon one. On Saturday, before meeting up with my dad for some chili dogs at The Vienna Inn, we visited his new apartment in order [...]

Going from West to East, the suggestions are Herndon-Dulles East (near Route 28), Herndon-Reston West (near Monroe Street), Reston Town Center (near Reston Parkway), Reston-Wiehle Avenue, Tysons-Spring Hill Road (Route 7 [...]
TYSONS CORNER, Va. — The first “big” snow storm of 2011 left 7 inches of snow in Tysons Corner. More may have fallen, but it appears there was some freezing rain at the end of the storm.
There are many abanndoned cars on area roads, but this morning’s commute required nothing more than more patience. [...]
Every year, I tally up where I went. The standard criteria are either spending the night or enjoying a sit down (non-fast food) meal. Hiking somewhere or going apple-picking, Christmas tree hunting, etc. counts too.

TYSONS CORNER, Va. — About a month ago, I was surprised to see some cherry trees in pretty full bloom at Halloween. Maybe at this point, I shouldn’t be surprised that they are still blooming at Thanksgiving. The trees are not as lush with their blossoms as they are in spring, but they have been [...]
TYSONS CORNER, Va. — In a year that the Washington D.C. area has seen Snowpocalypse and Snowmaggedon and what the Weather Channel called the worst summer of 2010, it somehow seems appropriate that this cherry tree is in full bloom just days before Halloween. I have seen early blossoms after a few unseasonable winter days, [...]
TYSONS CORNER, Va. – Team apparel in colors other than the official ones is kind of stupid. A purple Washington Redskins cap, like the one I saw at Harris Teeter in Tysons, is really stupid. It makes as much sense as a green New York Giants cap or red Dallas Cowboys cap. Who thinks of [...]
The Vienna Inn: Defining the Bar Food Genre – CityPaper
The Young and Hungry blog visits the Vienna Inn and paraphrases Potter Stewart in describing bar food:
I’ll just have to say I know it when I see it – and I’ve seen a lot of it served at the Vienna Inn.

The End Of The Road – The Springfield Connection
It took about 50 years, but the Fairfax County Parkway (secondary route 7100) is now completed. The final stretch between Rolling Road and Interstate 95 opened yesterday morning. There are still interchanges that need to be built for Fort Belvoir, but it is no possible to get [...]
