About the Famished Foursome
Erica: Scheduler for a Hill office, self-proclaimed food, alcohol & shoe junkie. Likes to cook when there’s time, generous with the cheese & the heat. Preferences lean meaty, bacon-y, & unhealthy, with elitist tendencies toward wine & microbrews. Considers breakfast acceptable at all times of day.
Amanda: A cooker & baker in her own right, works across the Hill as a fundraiser. Expertise runs from the dive brunch scene to the posh tables of Bistro Bis & Johnny’s Half Shell because she can. Likes food with some kick - but not too much - a touch of Mexican, and Funfetti… possibly all in one sitting. Lives with Erica in the dive foodie haven of Adams Morgan, conveniently by several Mexican restaurants.
Ryan: Hill staffer that loves all food, from greasy and fried, to lean & healthy. Has an extreme weakness for Italian and holds a PhD in pizza. Likes food to have a little bite but avoids cheese like the plague. Fat kid at heart, small portions simply won’t cut it. Slide me a plate, hand me a fork & step away. This could get ugly.
Whitney: Born and raised Washingtonian working on the Hill. Back in town after a 4-year tryst in the Midwest’s best kept foodie secret, Bloomington, Indiana. Vegetarian for all practical purposes. Sustainable, organic, natural and local foods enthusiast with undeniable penchant for Five Guys. Addicted to Michele’s Granola. Loves cooking and baking, but when crunched for time will settle for just reading cookbooks.
