Former Washington Post critic Phyllis Richman takes to the paper's blog today to talk about what's going on with the kids, er, trendy restaurants these days. She ventured to Pearl Dive Oyster Palace as a case study, where she discovered that what is trendy these days are two-hour waits and pricey cocktails. Also? Waiters who inform their table that they once worked as a big-and-tall underwear model. Kids these days. [WaPo]
