This is cool. I just rec'd an email from a customer -- Planet Ping Pong in Washington DC, and they been getting some great press -- including "best pizzeria in DC" from a local food writer.
Has anyone been there yet? It is a very modern restaurant, but the food sounds great; definitely not traditional. Can anyone get there?
Here's the email (another James is the owner),

Weta's Food Critic, Don Rockwell comments on the design of Comet Ping Pong:
"Comet Ping Pong should be a destination for anyone who cares about contemporary art. The restaurant itself is a work of art - it could be an exhibit in the Tate Modern ? a tongue-in-cheek masterwork, so full of playful references that you forget how brilliantly executed it is."
and MOST DELICIOUSLY.......Don Rockwell on Comet PIZZA:
"I?m going out on a limb and calling Comet Ping Pong as the best pizza in the Washington DC area. It is one of the most important restaurants in town ? enjoy it while you still can."

Sure glad somebody likes it.
