I think that represents the bias of the staff making the choices as much as anything else. Its DC-centric too, I feel, and a good restaurant further out probably loses points due to distance, if its even considered. OTOH - these lists stimulate discussion and get people to pay attention to the quality of what they eat, which can't be bad.

I’m sure the City will have several in the “cheap eats” issue of the Washingtonian. That’s fine with me, especially in this economy. Incidentally, one Virginia magazine (I can’t recall the exact name. I’m out of town and don’t have my files with me), actually has a listing for City of Falls Church restaurants, with its own City of Falls Church heading and not with the other Falls Church. I have it on my list of places to write and say “thank you”. I think it’s called “Northern Virginia” or “Virginia Living” or something like that.
