Posted by Stefanie Gans, Dining Editor / Thursday, July 26th, 2012
I couldn’t stop thinking about Portlandia, the IFC sketch-comedy show with SNL’s Fred Armisen and rocker Carrie Brownstein, while I dined at Arlington’s Green Pig Bistro. The place screamed with so many hipster icons, it almost felt like a parody. Just like Portlandia.
If you’ve never seen the show, I encourage you to grab it from Netflix immediately. It’ll help you understand—and laugh at—this current wave of urban farmhouse dining.
