Bodega: Spanish Tapas & Lounge

Bodega is located smack in the middle of Georgetown; however, at 5:30pm we were seated immediately and our food came quickly. Everything we ordered was delicious. The atmosphere screams Spain and we sat in the bright bay window (otherwise, the rest of the restaurant is quite dark).

Tonight we talked about the college essays. Yay--the common application essay is finished and Julia has her personal statement written. NCSU's earliest deadline is October 15 and she's going to make it, no problem. 

Recommendation: Steven recommends the Spanish Tortilla. Julia and I couldn't pick favorites--it was that good.

Thunder Burger

Thunder Burger is a delicious burger joint, especially if you want to try something off the beaten path. 
 
We have been here several times (including it because we went just before starting the blog). Steven has enjoyed the elk, boar, and bison burgers. Julia and I usually get the premium, free-range, 8oz beef burger with fries/salad and customized toppings (tomato, charred peppers, raw red onion, grilled red onion, mushrooms, red peppers, caramelized red onion relish, cheese, bacon, guacamole, BBQ pulled pork, avocado, fried egg...and more).
 
One time we were there, they had run out of sweet potato fries--so they comped the regular fries.

Recommendation: Try the elk, boar, and bison! Beef burger is a sure bet!
