dining out: ted's bulletin

When Ofelia and Nathan were in town for the inauguration, we ate dinner at one of my favorite places on Barracks Row, Ted's Bulletin. The restaurant is a modern take on a retro diner/soda fountain. The decor and furnishings are all beautiful and well-made. Gone With the Wind was playing on a large TV screen on the back wall.

It was build-your-own-burger Tuesday, and the deal includes an alcoholic "adult" milkshake. Here's Tony's Bananas Foster shake, which he says is the best one on the menu. The waitress said it's the restaurant's most popular shake.


The build-your-own burger schtick has the potential to go awry when you have an adventurous eater like Tony. This is the monstrosity that he created:


That's a chicken breast topped with fried green tomatoes, coleslaw, bacon and Boursin cheese. He raved about it, though.

Yours truly got the veggie burger (obvi) with spinach and mushrooms. I love Ted's veggie burger, although it falls apart, so I ate about half of it with a fork.


And we couldn't leave Ted's without homemade Pop-Tarts. I got a strawberry, and Ofelia ordered the peanut butter and bacon.


Hello, Wednesday morning breakfast.
