We’re on the Map

Capital Spice’s composite “best  of” map that is.

Tech-savvy food blogger Mike Bober has incorporated our latest 50 Best Restaurants picks into an evolving dining atlas demarcating the current dining favorites trumpeted by local critics–myself, Tim Carman of the Washington City Paper, Todd Kliman of the Washingtonian and Tom Sietsema of the Washington Post (with the most prominent Zagat scores thrown in for good measure).

A quick scan of the fully integrated food awards uncovered a few interesting tidbits:

* 2941, Four Sisters and Ray’s the Steaks were the only universally acclaimed establishments

* Of the 19 overlapping reviews, we agreed with Kliman most (74 percent of the time), followed by Sietsema (47 percent) and Carman (42 percent)

We look forward to poking around Bober’s information buffet as it continues to grow.
