Go To Town

Dedicated E-mail: Washington Post

Feeling helpless? Loss of appetite? No interest in socializing?

You may suffer from goingoutitis, an ailment commonly caused by an inability to decide where to go out in the D.C. area.

Luckily there’s a cure. The Washington Post’s Going Out Guide has what you need to fill your social calendar with ease. It combines expert reviews and recommendations on everything from movies and music to bars and special events.

While other remedies may only treat one specific area, the Going Out Guide covers all the bases. The site just launched noted food critic Tom Sietsema’s 10th annual Dining Guide, which reveals his 50 favorite restaurants across the D.C. area by star rating, location, cuisine and price. You can also get Sietsema’s “Best Bets,” which highlight his favorite desserts, cocktails and tables. Plus, local food lovers can enter a contest to win dinner with Tom.

Side effects may include having fun and becoming wildly popular.
