I visit the Asian Supermarket when I’m preparing my Asian dishes because they have many products I cannot locate in nearby shopping outlets like Giant or Safeway. The prices here are somewhat reasonable and they have everything I need. Just a warning yhey are lacking in more Americanized ingredients, this is more of a specialty store. We need more stores like this in DC. I love this place.

Closer to Burtonsville than it is Silver Spring, back off the road you'll find the Woodland Horse Center. A horse lovers' haven, where they'll teach even the most skittish of children to ride and care for horses. With an indoor ring as well as paddocks for riding, there's plenty of room to exercise and enjoy a ride. Special events for kids draw a little crowd, where at Halloween, the kids AND the horses get all dressed up for the party!

i oved shopping at Sniders. They had a wonderful deli filled with everything you could imagine. They had a large selection of drinks and frozen goods and their produce is delicous. Sniders is a little bit hard to find but it is alot better than a safeway or giant. i highly recommend this place.

I`ve been going to Los Chorros for years now. The food is very consistent and the service is always great. What makes this place different from the other latin restaurants in the area is that it is very family friendly. You won't find drunk people at the bar here. There are always families enjoying great food. The pupusas are the best in town without a doubt. The mariscada which is a seafood soup is also the best. Its my favorite mexican/salvadoran place.

Cuban restaurants in Miami ...there are lots of them.However, most are "lunchonettes" kind of places...not too appealing.
Cubano's could very well be, the missing restaurant Miami should have, but we have it right here in the Washington DC area, in the new Silver Spring.
Ambiance, food, family operated, ...ahh!!! and the smell!!!,...Cubanic aromas waving Caribeanly towars our gourmet capturing senses...(I don't usually talk this way),just try it!.
I particularly enjoy being surprised with the daily specials: Paella on weekends, garlicky Lamb chops (not gamy), terrific savory fish recipes, and a full menu of authentic Cuban cuisine.
So, just go tri it. If you like it like I do, tell afriend...we need more quality in this area like the jewel of Cubano's.
Pros: Uniqueness, Good Food, best mojitos in the E
Cons: Not big enough for la, it needs a larger bar, not good for diets.

Brookside Gardens is a wonderful morning trip with the kids.
Right near the main entrance is the children's fair garden. There are flowers, a little house, a bridge and more to look at. There is a list of things to find hiding among the flowers.
As you continue on, there is a gorgeous lake and an Asian inspired gazebo to explore. While resting there, we saw several families of turtles and some really big fish! We got some great photos!
They have another area with more cultivated flowers and a 'wedding gazebo' which was great to get a picture under.
They are well known for the butterfly garden, and they have guided presentations to teach you all you want to know.
They offer a variety of classes year round, from summer scientific camps to storytelling with a bonfire.
In the winter, they have a lighted winter garden (think Christmas lights) that you can walk through.
We love brookside gardens - it's a great morning out with the family.

Located in the heart of Downtown Silver Spring, the AFI Silver theater is just the place to go if you want to get away from the huge multiplex factory movie theaters that have seemed to have taken over. It is an old 30s movie theater that has been restored and renovated to showcase some of the less conventional films of today and yesterday. They not only show new independent movies but they have film festivals showing the works of directors ranging from Spielberg to Hitchcock to Jarmusch. They show foreign films that you won't see anywhere else and they have a wonderful documentary film festival every year. The theaters and lobby are always immaculately clean and the staff is welcoming and friendly. Movies cost about the same as at the megaplexes, maybe a little less, and if you become a member or contributor you get perks like special invitations and discount on movies.

Great restaurant with and extensive menu. Very affordable and perfect if you like trying new things. Make sure you try the awesome deserts! My favorite is their coconut ice cream served in a hollowed out coconut shell.

Do you need to rent an Elmo or Barney costume for your little ones 2nd birthday? Well this is the place to go if you need a particular costume. Forget going to those chain party stores that carry cheap and crappy costumes. Costumes Creative is open year round and has a complete stock of over 15,000 costumes. But- keep in mind - they are closed on Saturdays in June, July, and August. On-site designers insure proper fit and do custom work. They also carry make-up, wigs, and many more accesories. There is plenty of parking too.
