We ate at Ben's Chili Bowl, a short walk from our house. Anne had a great chili half-smoke. Ack's bowl of chili was flavorful with a real taste of chili powder but not too hot. The sides of potato salad and coleslaw were small but homemade and tasty - the coleslaw in particular was fresh. The chocolate milk shake was great, and next time Ack aims to try the pineapple shake. After eating we walked part of the Greater U Street Heritage Trail and visited the African American Civil War Memorial. We were both surprised that there were 190,000 African American soldiers who fought in the Civil War; their names are inscribed on the memorial.
