New President, New Food

Anyone who has lived in DC for a while knows that with each new administration, it means new restaurants. Bush Sr. liked Chinese. Clinton like Mickey-Ds and Dominoes, when W got here we got some Austin-style Tex-Mex. So what can we expect from the Obama camp?

Seems reports are he likes to cook Chili and serve it over rice. He also seems to like Pizza and comfort/soul food. I'm hoping it gets Rick Bayless to open a real Mexican place in the city. Chicago dogs? Kansas ribs? Hawaiian spam and poi? Doubt it means Kenyan or Indonesian food, but how great would that be? What are you hoping for?
