Shuler's Family Kitchen

Hey people this delicious destination might just be my pick of the month.....Shuler's Family Kitchen!! The owner, John Shuler, really knows how to throw down!! I had grilled tilapia with cabbage and candy yams. The fish was grilled fresh and was spiced to perfection, it was crisp but not dry! I loved it. This little place located on 5205 Marlboro Pike Capital Heights, MD 20743 is full of character. Upon arriving at the restaurant I was kind of skeptical but boy am I glad I didn't judge a book by its cover. Inside I was greeted by the aroma of wonderful spices and Mr.Shuler himself. It is set up buffet style(but you don't do the the serving, they serve you), so everything is set up for you to see and make your choice that much harder! It all looked so good I didn't know what to do! After making my decision to go with the tilapia ( did I mention that the fish was very meaty, I'm not talking your flat freezer fish from the grocery store....and you know what I'm talking about, I'm talking plump!), I walked over to the tables to discover dominoes, checkers and chess on one table and Uno on another, there was also a TV on the wall. So I decided to play a little Uno and watch a little TV. After whipping up on my friend for two hands the food was ready. The games served as a distraction because it didn't even seem as though it had taken that long for our food to be ready! Mr.Shuler had out done himself I was extremely happy with my decision. Besides the great food and atmosphere, this place gets even better! They also serve breakfast, and yes I did go back the following morning to try it out and it was delicious too! But wait there's more.... they close at 10 pm BUT on Friday and Saturday open back up at 2 am to serve the late nighters who are just coming home from the club!!! Don't worry you don't have to thank ME just go and try them out. I promise you won't be disappointed and make sure you tell him you found it on I ATE IT YOU SHOULD TRY IT!!

Now go eat GREAT!!

King's Deli & Grocery

This delicious destination is located on the corner of Georgia Ave. and Quebec Pl. in N.W.  right across from Georgia Ave.-Petworth Metro. Sou can fix you just about anything, anyway you want it. But my personal favorite is the Chicken and Potatoes. Simply DELICIOUS!! The wings are cooked in a teriyaki type sauce with garlic. And the potatoes are not mashed they're actually wedges!! All drizzled in that yummy sauce. I can eat this for days and not get tired of it. But make sure you ask them to cook the wings hard, it just taste even better that way! Be sure to get there before 5 p.m or you're OUT OF LUCK and we don't want that now do we! I hope you enjoy, I know I do!

Peaches Kitchen Restaurant & Catering Service

Ok my first delicious destination is a spot called Peaches Kitchen. It's a fusion of American and Jamaican cooking and boy is it tasty. One dish I highly recommend is the Stuffed Chicken Dinner. The chicken is stuffed with CRAB & SHRIMP!!!!! I usually get it with the Garlic Mashed Potatoes and Cabbage! It is mouth watering GREAT. I also recommend the Turkey Meatloaf, Turkey Spaghetti, and just about everything else on the menu. The Mac & Cheese isn't bad either! BUT I highly recommend ordering 45 minutes in advance. They make it fresh when you order so you'll be around for a minute before you eat. But the wait is well worth it! This is not the place to go for a quick bite....although they do have a lunch buffet but not all of the menu items are available. The desserts are GREAT as well. I love the Cheesecake..... and the Brownie!

Peaches Kitchen is located at 6412 3rd Street NW Washington, DC. 20011. Just around the corner from  Calvin Coolidge Senior High School. You can also take a look at their online menu @ www.peacheskitchen.com or give then a call @ 202.722.5250  Make sure you tell them you found them on I ATE IT YOU SHOULD TRY IT!!!

What's Cooking!!

Hello All and Welcome to I Ate it You should Try it!!! My name is Ajahmure A.K.A I Ate It. I'm a jewelry and handbag designer but when I'm not creating new pieces I'm looking for new, interesting, and GREAT places to eat. (Notice I said GREAT not Good.) Not all of the places in this blog will be the usual restaurant. Some might be carry-outs ( and DC has lots of 'em, but I'll save you some time and trips to the store buying Pepto and tell u the ones worth going to), your local deli, corner pizza shop, or that hole in the wall that always smells good but you might not want to go in!  Well I've been there and I'm still going there and people the food is great!! I hope you try these places I recommend and you enjoy them as much as I do!!(Notice I said DO not HAVE!)
