The other restaurants in that same shopping center are doing fine. I live within walking distance, I would always see Modern Market never full or really busy at all. Their food was good but priced a little higher than the other restaurants near it. Also the menu was sort of hard to figure out sometimes which doesn't help. I think this is just a result of the American palates changing and also there is a large Asian population in Rockville that would not pick a Modern American restaurant as their first food option.

Meanwhile, those same guns are somehow not causing crime to the same degree in cities that don't have corrupt government machines running them, protected by massive voter fraud.<br /><br />Mysteriously, "Peak Restaurant" hasn't stopped D.C. from sweeping the restaurant awards, and Northern VA from wiping the floor with Montgomery County in economic development.<br /><br />What's different?
