A hot sauce so fierce it has its own nickname, and you have to ask to meet it. They call it The Man, and it gets spooned out of a small, well-used pot like a family treasure. The sauce lives inside a converted auto garage in Washington, close to a busy freeway. The kitchen only serves lunch, so timing matters.

Dine Inside A Beautifully Restored Train Car At This Unique Washington Restaurant

I’d like to respectfully point out that a 1906 railcar once carried railroad executives as a private car. Today it serves eggs. Roughly 12,000 of them a month, if I may say so. That seems worthy of a little admiration. The car spent sixty years as a diner in...
