From WAMU.
- 42 - Bottomless Brunch
The only meal D.C. loves more than a power lunch is a bottomless, boozy brunch. Most weekends, unlimited mimosas, and bloody marys are flowing as Washingtonians splurge on late breakfasts, often after late nights. But brunch has equally impassioned critics and fans. Ruth and Patrick learn why Washingtonians love brunch so much and whether it’s a good deal for anyone. Fill out our survey: dishcity.org/survey Leave us a tip at wamu.org/supportdishcity.

Thu, 16 Jun 2022 - 20min - 38 - A Chinatown In Name Only
D.C.’s Chinatown has all the hits. A giant archway. Dragons painted on the streets. Chinese characters in its storefronts. But…where are all the Chinese people? For all of its traditional iconography, D.C.’s Chinatown doesn’t feel very Chinese. For years, the remaining Chinese restaurants and shops have felt more like Easter eggs in the neighborhood rather than the main attraction. How did it get like this? Ruth explores the history of D.C.’s Chinese American community. Ruth and Patrick will be at the Mosaic farmer's marketin Fairfax, Va., on Sunday, June 19. Stop by and grab a sticker!

Thu, 09 Jun 2022 - 34min - 37 - Maryland Blue Crabs
Blue crabs are messy, time-consuming, and expensive to harvest and eat. And yet, no summer on the Chesapeake Bay is complete without a crab feast. Many Washingtonians are happy to set aside a couple hours, and maybe a few hundred dollars, to enjoy this meal with loved ones. But how many of us know what it takes to get crabs and crab cakes to your table? Ruth and Patrick learn how these iconic crustaceans get from the boat to your throat.

Thu, 02 Jun 2022 - 30min - 36 - The Old Bay Obsession
Old Bay is everywhere in the Chesapeake Bay region. It’s on chips, popcorn, ice cream, beer, and even chocolate. You can even find the brand tattooed on people’s bodies. But, most importantly, it’s associated with the state’s favorite food: blue crabs. Ruth and Patrick dive into Old Bay’s origin story, why people love it, and whether Old Bay is actually on your crabs. We’ll be at the Silver Spring farmer's marketin Maryland on Saturday, May 28, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Come hang out! Like this episode? Leave a review!

Asian carryouts are longtime fixtures of D.C.’s Black neighborhoods. Where else can you get a quintessential order of chicken wings and mambo sauce? Despite how loved they are by District natives and transplants, they’ve also gotten a lot of bad press. For years, Black customers have experienced racism at the hands of Asian workers. Meanwhile, Asian workers have received xenophobic attacks. Hosts Ruth and Patrick puzzle through their mixed feelings about a D.C. institution. Like this episode? Leave a review!

We’re back! After covering the pandemic’s effect on food delivery and our local restaurant scene, Dish City is dining out again. Behind every iconic food of the Washington region is a story of city change. On the latest season of Dish City, join hosts Ruth Tam and Patrick Fort as they sample iconic meals from D.C., Maryland and Virginia and search for answers to questions like: Why are there so many Chinese carryouts in D.C.’s Black neighborhoods? What’s the seasoning that’s actually on your blue crabs? And…what is stuffed ham?
Thu, 12 May 2022 - 02min - 33 - Solutions Mode
There are problems with food delivery. There's the reliance on gig laborers who say they are underpaid. Restaurants have to pay high commission fees on top of most orders. And delivery companies wind up operating on threadbare margins and still haven't turned an annual profit. Oh, and soggy fries. We haven't quite solved for that yet. There's plenty to vent about. But, food delivery's not going anywhere. So, on our season finale: Can food delivery be better? Read a transcript of this episode at dishcity.org. Follow us on Twitter and Instagram: @dishcity.

Thu, 17 Jun 2021 - 40min - 32 - Gig Work: The Fine Print Of Food Delivery
"Quick sign up! Flexible hours! Be your own boss!" The perks of gig work are well-known, but do they actually reflect the reality of drivers working for food delivery apps? Patrick and Ruth try driving for DoorDash to find out. Plus, they interview three drivers in D.C., Seattle, and Denton, Texas, to see how gig workers are fighting for better working conditions.

Thu, 10 Jun 2021 - 34min - 31 - The Rise And Farce Of Third-Party Delivery Apps
DoorDash started a decade after its competitors, but now controls half of the food delivery market in the U.S. What can we learn from the very first order its founders delivered? And how did all these third-party platforms reshape the way we think of food delivery? Ruth and Patrick explore the origins of DoorDash and examine whether the "magic wand" it built for restaurateurs is working.

Thu, 03 Jun 2021 - 36min - 30 - How Big Pizza And Big Tech Made Hot Delivery Possible
In the '60s, delivering pizzas meant wrapping hot pies in a blanket or driving them to customers over open flames. With those humble (and, uh, life-threatening) beginnings, how did we get to the quick and easy delivery everyone knows and loves today? From heatproof bags to rotating ovens, Patrick Fort and Ruth Tam investigate how 'big pizza' changed the delivery game forever. Read a transcript of this episode at dishcity.org.

Thu, 27 May 2021 - 24min - 29 - How American Chinese Food Became Delivery Food
On a cold November night in 1976, a New York City restaurateur named Misa Chang started sliding delivery menus under her neighbors’ doors for her Chinese restaurant in Manhattan. Chang wasn’t the first to offer delivery, but when delivery gained traction in U.S. cities, Chinese restaurants were often the first to do it. As dishes like chop suey and General Tso's chicken became part of American food culture, Americans’ feelings toward the Chinese Americans who made the food (and delivered it) remained stuck in the past. And now, as demand for delivery increases, many American Chinese restaurants are closing. Is delivery the key to survival? Read a transcript of this episode at dishcity.org.

Thu, 20 May 2021 - 30min - 28 - Why Is Delivery A Thing?
When you really think about it, delivering food from restaurants to homes is kind of strange. Nothing about the process saves money and it doesn't make the food taste any better! And yet, platforms like DoorDash and Grubhub doubled their revenue during the pandemic. So, what's the history of this weird system? Welcome to the latest season of Dish City, where we unwrap the past, present and future of delivery. Read a transcript of this episode at dishcity.org. Follow us on Twitter and Instagram: @dishcity.

Sun, 09 May 2021 - 03min - 26 - The Foodie With No Taste
Most people who contract coronavirus recover, but we still don't know much about the lingering side effects – including the loss of taste and smell.

Thu, 12 Nov 2020 - 26min - 25 - Winter Is…You Know
As Game of Thrones nerds can tell you, "winter is coming" is more than a seasonal weather forecast –it's a warning. With that in mind, what are local restaurants with outdoor dining doing to prepare for the harshest season? And, given the limits in federal and local coronavirus financial relief, what do they actually have control over? Ruth and Patrick follow a restaurant and brewery owner's preparations –and their state of mind– as we count the days towards the cold. dishcity@wamu.org Twitter: @dishcity Instagram: @dishcity Support the show at wamu.org/supportdishcity.

Thu, 22 Oct 2020 - 21min - 23 - It’s Fall, Eat A Mooncake
Now that fall is here, Patrick is enjoying his cozy flannel shirts and crisp pumpkin beers. But for Ruth, entering this season is bittersweet. Cultural holidays like the Mid-Autumn Festival are normally comforting this time of year. But for Asians who observe this harvest celebration, there's no easy way to safely gather and eat traditional mooncakes during a pandemic. To get some perspective on family food traditions and what they offer us this season, Ruth turns to D.C. resident Suzanne Nuyen, the creator of Vietnamese food blog, Bun Bo Bae.

Thu, 01 Oct 2020 - 25min - 22 - The Decision To Dine Out
As bars and restaurants in the Washington region continue to reopen, diners are flocking back looking for a sense of normalcy. For Patrick, the decision to dine out is a lot more complicated than it was pre-pandemic. In his attempt to find a safe way to dine, he learns how others are making that decision and gets advice from local restaurateurs, government regulators and his co-host Ruth. dishcity@wamu.org Twitter: @dishcity Instagram: @dishcity Dish City depends on the support of listeners like you!

Thu, 24 Sep 2020 - 27min - 21 - Closing Time: A Farewell To Eighteenth Street Lounge
When Eighteenth Street Lounge closed permanently in June 2020, Washingtonians mourned the "end of an era." Ruth and Patrick look back on the nightclub's 25-year legacy, its mark on the underground music scene and the ways D.C.'s nightlife scene has changed since it opened.

Thu, 10 Sep 2020 - 39min - 20 - Call Your Landlord
Rent is due in a week! And restaurants are still struggling to make it through the pandemic. If they don’t renegotiate their leases, restaurants and bars won’t survive. But, landlords are hurting too. Patrick and Ruth continue their exploration of negotiating rent during coronavirus with real estate experts, and the owners of Sloppy Mama’s Barbecue and Pupatella. Plus: An update on Burmese restaurant Thamee and their rent negotiations. Note: This episode is Part 2 of a series on paying the rent.

Thu, 25 Jun 2020 - 27min - 19 - When Restaurants Can’t Pay Rent
Even before the pandemic, restaurants struggled to pay rent. And now, whether they're starting to re-open, only doing takeout or remaining closed...they still owe rent! Patrick and Ruth take a look at one restaurant's challenges, and their attempt to negotiate with their landlord. Note: This episode is Part 1 of a series on paying the rent.

Thu, 18 Jun 2020 - 16min - 18 - When D.C. Burned In 1968
Following the police killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis, D.C. has been gripped in protest for five days straight. As demonstrations intensify, local food businesses downtown have been broken into and burned. This isn't the first time Washingtonians have protested the loss of black life, and it's not the first time restaurants have witnessed it. Ruth and Patrick revisit a conversation with Virginia Ali, who cofounded Ben's Chili Bowl and witnessed the 1968 protests that destroyed her neighborhood. Virginia Ali shares the origin story of Ben’s, why her business stayed open through the protests and how they survived the years that followed. Music and archival audio in this episode included "Dancing In The Street" by Martha Reeves & Vandellas and an excerpt from the documentary "King Is Dead."

Wed, 03 Jun 2020 - 10min - 17 - Ethiopian Cuisine
Ethiopian cuisine is a D.C. mainstay, so when Ruth and Patrick taste "fast-casual Ethiopian" at Union Market, they have questions. What does it mean when a chef tries to put a new spin on dishes that are thousands of years old? We visit a family restaurant that's sticking to tradition, talk to a chef who tried to make the "Rasika of Ethiopian food," and collect some scorching hot takes from perhaps the best-known Ethiopian chef out there, Marcus Samuelsson.

Thu, 19 Sep 2019 - 21min - 16 - Half-Smokes
The half-smoke is the first food that comes to mind when we think about D.C.'s "iconic" foods. But when Ruth and Patrick take a trip to Ben's Chili Bowl, which made the half-smoke famous, Ruth orders a hot dog by mistake and realizes she doesn't really know what a half-smoke is. We take a trip to a sausage factory, hop back in time to 1958 when Ben's Chili Bowl opened and foray into the struggle playing out between old and new D.C. Follow us on Twitter and Instagram.

Tue, 20 Aug 2019 - 02min - 14 - The Big Pivot
No surprises to anyone listening: Dish City has had to pivot. But, it's nothing compared to what local restaurant owners and workers are dealing with. On week 11 of working from home, Patrick and Ruth turn to the owners of Compass Coffee and Hank's Oyster Bar to see how they made decisions during some of the most intense weeks of their lives. Then, they talk to two Washingtonians –a bartender and a Muslim community leader– about how they've each changed their approach to food service during the pandemic. dishcity@wamu.org Read a transcript.

Thu, 21 May 2020 - 32min - 13 - The Moral Calculus Of Buying Food During A Pandemic
Before the pandemic, getting takeout or going to the grocery store didn't seem too complicated. Now, the coronavirus is revealing new challenges, as well as old vulnerabilities.

Thu, 07 May 2020 - 33min - 12 - Cooking Under Quarantine
Stopping by the corner store for an extra onion or a last-minute bottle of wine is just not going to cut it anymore. Many of us are quarantined or sheltering-in-place with fewer food options. So, how are Patrick and Ruth making the most with what they have? They talk to Charles Duan and Jenny Gao, two creative home cooks who never let any ingredient go to waste. Also, they chat with Derek Brown about his Twitter mission to write people custom cocktail recipes, and his suggestions for enjoying them mindfully. Read a transcript.

Thu, 21 Nov 2019 - 13min - 8 - Power Lunch
From high-powered creatives and business executives in New York, to lawyers and politicians in D.C., the power lunch has long been a staple for the wealthy and powerful. And the classic steakhouse has always been the quintessential setting for these meals. But as more and more young people move to D.C., do power lunches still hold the cachet they once did? And, despite being known as a "steakhouse town" for decades, are D.C.'s steaks still the ultimate "power lunch"? Ruth and Patrick explore the local lunch scene to see if what you eat in the middle of the day indicates how powerful you might be in D.C. --- Please fill out our survey (dishcity.org/survey) so we can get a better sense of what you want most out of future episodes and events!

Thu, 24 Oct 2019 - 20min - 7 - Soul Food
D.C. has historically been part of the American South. But as D.C.'s population has grown and diversified, its obvious ties to the South are starting to fade. Patrick and Ruth dine at the Florida Avenue Grill and Succotash, and take a detour through local football history, to learn what D.C.'s Southern and Soul Food restaurants tell us about our regional roots.

Thu, 17 Oct 2019 - 20min - 6 - Pupusas
The pupusa is one of the most recognizable dishes in El Salvador and one of the most delicious street foods in the world. It's loved locally and yet restaurants that serve and celebrate just Salvadoran food seem underrepresented in the District. Ruth and Patrick sample local Salvadoran Mexican cuisine from Audi Field, El Tamarindo and Gloria's Pupuseria to figure out how lesser-known immigrant cuisines distinguish themselves in D.C.

Thu, 10 Oct 2019 - 20min - 5 - Mumbo Sauce
Washingtonians have been pouring blood red, sticky-sweet mumbo sauce over chicken wings and fries for decades. That's why, when the D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser said it "annoyed" her and hadn't heard of the sauce until she was an adult, she caused an uproar. What would it mean if mumbo sauce wasn’t even from D.C.? We trace the mysterious origins of D.C.'s choice condiment and consider what it takes to stake a claim on a dish: history or pride? Follow us on Twitter and Instagram: @dishcity.

Thu, 03 Oct 2019 - 17min - 4 - Jumbo Slice
Jumbo slice is divisive. A single, floppy slice is longer than most diners' forearms. While it's a favorite among late night partiers, especially in Adams Morgan, it's often derided as "drunk food" and has historically been blamed for all the fights and litter on 18th street on weekends. Ruth and Patrick call on pizza experts near and far to understand why jumbo slice has stood the test of time -- and why it's so beloved. Follow us on Twitter and Instagram: @dishcity.
