Hudson to Replace David Greggory We mentioned Hudson back in May, when the first news of the transition in store for David Greggory's Restau Lounge at 21st and M St. NW broke. We get a little more info about this change this week. In the TomChat, we learn that the change will take place sometime next month, and that—contrary to what we've heard before—Chef Greggory Hill will be heading elsewhere. Hill will be replaced by...

This post is by DCist Contributor Eddie Kim "A hotdog is a hotdog." Audacious–if not strange–words coming from Tony Tabdili, co-investor and gourmet hotdog slinger at M’Dawg Haute Dogs in Adams Morgan. Would you walk into the Westminster Dog Show and say a shitzu is the same as a pug? A chihuahua the same as a great dane? Certainly not. And just like the many breeds of dogs in the world, there are just as...

D.C.'s 2007 Taste of the Nation to support "Share Our Strength" was held last night at the Washington Hilton Hotel to raise funds to combat childhood hunger in our region. The event featured over 70 restaurants, chefs, and distributors from the D.C. metro area who all came out to support the cause and glad hand with their fans. An estimate of a whopping 1200 people showed up for good food, drinks, company, and a noble...

Back in October, the Post gave its weekly Food section a makeover. Some changes -- such as the welcome introduction of Greg Kitsock's monthly beer column and David Greggory founder David Hagedorn's every-so-often cooking column (not to mention his immediately pre-makeover face-off with former Post restaurant critic Phyllis Richman) -- have helped to modernize and diversify a stodgy section that had increasingly rested its reputation on the always solid restaurant commentary of Tom Sietsma and Richman before him. But other changes -- most notably, the dumbing-down of a key component of section's wine coverage -- have been met with much derision. And rightly so.

DCist caught up with Bittman to find out if he is sharpening his knives and his skills to compete at the Capital Food Fight against Greggory Hill of David Greggory, Morou of Signatures, Katsuya Fukushima of Café Atlantico, and last year's winner, Ris LaCoste of DC's 1789.

From DCist food contributor Adam Bailey Having It Out on the Wednesday Food Pages Wands raised! Food-world wizards David Hagedorn (most recently of David Greggory) and Phyllis Richman (revered Washington Post food critic from 1967 to 2000) ignited the pages of the Post's food section yesterday with a healthy debate about running a restaurant, diner expectations and stolen napkin rings.
