Pure Prana Yoga Studio

If it wasn't for the pleasant soothing atmosphere, the amazing owner Natasha (the owner of the place), the nice variety of classes and instructors of Pure Prana I most probably wouldn't have continued my yoga practice (after I started it at the awsome Pure Prana yoga retreat at Maya Tulum, Mexico).

I'm still somewhat of a beginner, half a year or so into my practice, so that's my perspective.

I warmly recommend Pure Prana (and yoga) to anyone and everyone! :)

This is simple: From Momo's I get the best sushi in Old Town and at decent price. Good variety. Fresh. Pleasant service.

My neighborhood hair salon that cuts my hair well. Very good price-quality ratio. Nice people. Clean. Moderate price. Walk-in has always worked for me.

What else could I need from a hair salon?

I actually haven't tried the 'proper seating' eating at The Majestic (even though I've heard many praise that, too). But the lunch at the bar is clearly the best lunch _and_ the best bargain lunch of Old Town (in the top price/deliciousness ranking).

Check it out. Lunch can't really get much better with $12 (or so).

Surely not your fancy  gourmet experience but for what it aims at it's as good as it gets: Fast, inexpensive, delicious dishes made from fresh ingredients. And they also have a good delivery service.

This is my favorite "fast food" restaurant in DC area. Beats the heck out of any others and also a bunch of "more serious" restaurants.

My favorite is the Asian coconut curry but you should also try the Shanghai feast (a vegetarian dish).

Best design shop in Old Town.

Not _only_ because Peter has such a nice selection of Finnish Design (Iittala and often all kinds of more-difficult-to-find classics).

Highly recommend!

Q Street MDs

Based on my general check-up visit to Q Street MDs (Dr. Ang) I can warmly recommend the service.

The atmosphere is laid back but the people know their stuff and they have a very nice health record system that keep tabs on your health records and data. They also have an in-house lab that gives quick results (while you see the doctor) on most of the basic tests that they take during routine checkups. This was really nice as I didn't need to go to a lab separately nor wait for the results.

On scheduling:
"If your medical problem is urgent, please call our office for a same day appointment."
