Ward 8 Councilman Marion Barry said some stuff last week that angered anyone in his or her right mind. If there's an upside, it's that the statement triggered thoughtful responses on topics including race relations and economic justice. A much more mundane issue that I wish to explore here is that many people who live or spend time in Ward 8 think that the available food options suck.
Anacostia is sparsely populated and its average resident is relatively low-income. This combination does not generate a competitive, varied retail market. Those who are dependent on the few restaurants that do exist get the shaft, because they pay the same price as they would in a market with a broader consumer base but for an inferior quality meal. Hopefully Barry and others whose gears this situation grinds will pursue more reasonable solutions than the one he proposed on Wednesday.
You forgot about Fireside Cafe on MLK
ReplyDeleteSadly, both Fireside Cafe and Morgan's Family Fish Fry have closed down since the beginning of the year, further reducing the variety of options available in the neighborhood and cutting the number of black-owned restaurants in half (from 4 to 2)

Morgan Fish Fry used to poor the grease out on the curb to prevent folks from sitting/standing there. Foul. Word in the street is he was far behind in taxes to the city.
ReplyDeleteThe grease explains why everyone (most notably the guy who sells single cigarettes) hangs out next door in front of the doctor/dentist office instead.
