FOOD TRUCKS—Steve Hanifi, owner of Afghan food truck Tasty Kabob, tells The Washingtonian that his next game plan is to open up a brick-and-mortar location somewhere in DC. He says he's toured Adams Morgan and H Street spots, but nothing has worked out just yet. But he's already planning the menu, with breakfast options and "more intricate lamb preparations."
