By Mary Cass & Mia Di Okay, so lesbians don’t have a monopoly on the Mexican food market. But we do have a special place in our hearts for the taco (and Frida Kahlo.) Tacos are more than just the punchline to your favorite dirty joke. They are a protein-carb-veggie trifecta, and easily come in [...]
There are three words my iPhone ALWAYS correctly intuits: sushi, lesbian and whiskey. While The Codmother doesn’t serve sushi, it does serve the second-best drunk food (after tacos): fish and chips.

Come October 1st a new food truck hits the streets of DC, and you’ll probably find this one WAY sexier than Doug the Food Dude.
