Food at CUBIK

[Transmattic]

It seems that every time I go to the club I get hungry at some point while I'm there. Would it be possible for the club to offer food, like hot dogs, fries, pizza, etc. ? I mean I would think that would be another way for the club to make money. Maybe put in a kitchen somewhere.

[bbjohnson]

im sure i would probably get something to eat there, sometime throughout the night

[Buddafly]

at one point they sold pizza.... don't know what happen to that though.

[mtigressa2001]

I totally agree, pizza and hot dogs would be sooo good. I always end up getting hungry when we leave the club.....

and yeap good way to make extra money:thumbsup:

[Wickity]

I think getting a street vendor outside would be ideal.. that way you can grab a bite on the way out...

I mean, I have enough to worry about with people spilling drinks on me, much less pizza...

I can't cause then its :nixo: and dancing with a full stomach sux but yeah a vending machine outside would work.... most clubs in dc have a a vendor outside selling hotdogs

[Wickity]

Have you ever been there from 9-4? that's a long ass time, and you can work up an appetite.. a little snack during or after wouldn't kill anyone. :D

[korbendallas]

true

[SCHLiTZ]

I agree.... getting there early and staying late while drinking and dancing makes a person HUNGRY. Hot dogs would be the bomb. They are easy to make and don't cost much to make. Simple.

[badkitty3804]

food is for the weak.

I suggest trying my famous diet:

Red wine and popsicles.

[SiK BuG]

i've been quite hungry there and I wish i'd have something to snack on specially being a diabetec. I try to bring something in my bag that I leave at the coat check just in case.

[numbskull]

:no: why eat your meal when you can drink it???

[Lynchx]

yah i was hungry last night in the club, i was wishing they sold bags of chips or sumshit

[badkitty3804]

I had pretzels in my jeep :D

[markg]

We had a large selections of white eateries and white pizzas up in the Skybox for those that participated in the white party theme. I feel the same way though, i end up starving myself.

[Chicago]

Ewwwwww have you ever seen the inside of a club with the lights up? Two words come to mind "fekkin scuzzy" I wouldn't eat food prepared at Nation if they gave it away free.

[markg]

It wasnt free to have, but it was free to anyone that wanted something to eat. Im sure there was a number of people that appreciated it.

[The Drifter]

Someody should open up a waffle house across the street.

[The Drifter]

Or a fuddruckers.

[iminxtc]

i also keep shit in my bag. or like last night, i grab a snack from exxon when i leave:D

[housecat]

We need a Waffle House in DC period. They did used to have pizza there but I don't think that's going on anymore. I know the Edge used to have food that was nice. I rarely get hungry at the club usually just when I get home after drinking. I don't eat before going out eating then dancing don't mix with me I have a weak stomach.

[A.J.]

Food would be a good idea

[projecthaujobb]

yeah lets serve nasty warehouse club food so ppl can puke it out on the dancefloor.

[badkitty3804]

He makes a point.

That would make for A LOT more mess. :chilly:

[Synthetikid]

back in the buzz days there were talks about re-opening the kitchen (yes, it used to be open years ago.) i think it's a great idea, but we would need a smoke free room... and how about a BBQ on the patio in the summer?

i always get hungry when i drink... well, that or horny, and i'm def not going to have sex at a club.

[candypink]

yeah food would be nice i think...like the fries and stuff they used to have at the tunnel...and i ate those and am here to tell about it!

[badkitty3804]

They should get those 'alcohol freezee pops'.

They would compliment my redwine/popsicle diet perfectly.

[MichaelMaxim]

We were actually talking about this at Cubik this past Friday... I was starving before I played and I WAS SOOO HUNGRY. All I wanted was a bite of some greasy pizza or something.

How hard is it to have a small oven and some dude swapping frozen pizzas out of it all night?

I say add some food Mr. Boyles.

-Michael Maxim

[retail]

did someone say Baja Beach Club pizza? :yummy::nixo:

its not like the pizza and cupcakes were whiped all over the floor before being served to people.

i ate a slice and it gave me more energy to dance to POTD's craziness.

[korbendallas]

I like stopping into the IHOP in springfield after a night out...mmmmmmmmm pancakes. :)

[A.J. Inx]

I enjoyed pelting unsuspecting buzz-goers with marshmellows... :D

[mtd2003]

Nothing beats those mozzarella sticks at The Edge..

yay for club food

[SCHLiTZ]

mmmmmm..... mozzarella stix. :drool:

[housecat]

Those were :dabomb:

[retail]

they made your head explode?!?!!/? :noway:

[miss becca]

mmm food. ruh roh! SOUR GUMMY WORM TIME!

[merkurboy]

You know Edge did have some good food. I only ate there once, but i remember it being pretty good. just seems weird..food at a club ?

you go there to drink, not eat.
Anyone else remember Trax where they had Mark Farina spinning on the patio and they were selling hot dogs and hamburgers?

[mtd2003]

Edge food is awesome.

But if you go there and set up a promotional table, don't try to be a high-roller and order the shrimp.

It's fried.. but.. well,

that was one of the worst clubbing mistakes ever.

[housecat]

:yes:

I think the reason why it didn't seem weird at Tracks and the Edge was because there was an outside area with benches. It's a bit more comfortable to chow down outside that inside a dark club IMO. I felt fine getting some fries or whatever there but I don't see myself doing it at Nation. :shrug:

[Emporium76]

Food sounds like a good idea to me, drinking red bull always makes me soooo hungry....Im actually pretty hungry right now too.

There's a patio at Nation... I distinctly remember.

Or an "open-air cafe," if you will.

[housecat]

Yeah there is... maybe when the weather gets warm and it's open they'll serve food. :gotme:

[Electric Head]

Scary.

[ao125]

See now Tracks used to have a kitchen and that worked out ok... at least until they opened the grill outside then there would be smoke wafting into the club. I think as long as you were only flash-frying things, it would be ok.

Also nachos... I think if you can cook some small things at a Movie Theater or even the 9:30 club, then Nation could do something... The other thing is "should" they do it... I think itz more than likely the club would become even more grubby really fast.

[merkurboy]

i dont know i just don't see eating at Nation as the "thing to do." For some reason I found it more acceptable at Edge. Don't they sell food at Nation in the main room there used to be a spinning pizza thingy right next to the steps that go up to what used to be the 21+lounge entrance?

[asian]

nation has attempted to serve food several times but nobody ever bought any. it's not like they didn't have the facilities, just nobody bought anything, so it's not worth the hassle.

[Moebius]

I think I would buy some food once in a while, but I usually eat before I go out. Club food = $$$$$$$$$$$

Yeah, I can't think of a single time I ate fried cheese sticks at Tracks that I didn't somehow get the "ass-surprise"...

[Electric Head]

LOL

[beth]

they sold hot dogs and stuff at destination.
i thought it was a good idea, especially for people that :chug a little too much.
:thumbsup:

[Electric Head]

Tis a good idea.....at the time. It's the next day that regret sets in like the e-coli that your chicken fingers was at the club last night.

[MaryAnarchy]

they had food @ the edge. i never got any though.

Dave ate three Tunnel burgers over the course of a single night.

We were worried for him, but he pulled through.

[MaryAnarchy]

i agreed with you on the food tip, it would prevent a lot of people from getting super drunk as well. but i bet it would create more hassle than it's worth.
they sell food on thursday nights.
candy.

go then :D

[MaryAnarchy]

once i used a hot dog bun @ destination to attempt to save chris' drunk life.

[beth]

see?
club food saves lives.

[beth]

oh. snap.

[Electric Head]

Mary, did you feed a pass-out drunk?

[MaryAnarchy]

i tried to
i didn't know what to do
i panicked
i thought that it would help absorb the alchohol.
he was somewhat alive at this point, he could moan and stuff, i think he actually did chew up and swallow the first piece i fed him.

[Electric Head]

Maybe that's not the 'correct' thing to do...but what I have learned from your little story is that you care enough to do what you can to help somone.....rare and beautiful. So many people would just stand there and say oh my gawd, what should I do.....Instead of waiting for a hero, Mary became one. YOU ROCK GIRL!

[MaryAnarchy]

dina and cliff did teh most. i was a panicked person running aroun dlike a chicken with my head cut off most of the time.

[housecat]

You meant well and tried to help :)

[Electric Head]

Well, that's an important role too.....;)

[MaryAnarchy]

yeah, i can't handle things like that well.

i'm high strung

[MaryAnarchy]

the older i get the more like my mom i am

*shudder*

[Electric Head]

Well, your mom must be cool then

[MaryAnarchy]

nah, she's a high strung person. like, if she doesn't have something to stress about, she creates something to stress about

[Electric Head]

So you're my long lost sister!

[MaryAnarchy]

hahaha
plurhaps

[Electric Head]

hehehehe

[jrob]

ok, all i read was the first post, but...FOR GOD'S SAKE WHY MAN!??! That is the one thing that I despised about Destination parties...the smell of gross food everywhere. YUCK! There is a McDonald's and a shitload of other convenience stores (don't say I sent you, as I think you may risk your well-being in the one 7-11) that you can go to before or after. I say food at Nation is BAD NEWS.

[Spazz]

they have a kitchen just food requires a different permit i think...

[IndoRave]

what about sushi? :haha:

[sirenofthestorm]

When I lived in El Paso Texas this lady sold homemade burritos from her car. Man were they the best thing I have ever eaten at 6 in the morn after dancing my ass off. :thumbsup:

[Electric Head]

I'd bet that Nation would serve great sushi!!! Yum, yum.

[IndoRave]

yea, and they should have kewl names for the rolls (maki sushi) like buzz roll, scott and cucumber roll...etc...etc....hehehehehe....*slap myself* :D

[beth]

:slap:

there.

[LaZyCrZy]

:slap: again.


hot doggies are good. nasty but tasty.

[starlight]

Anybody else reading this thinking "Hey I should start selling food out of my car right outside Nations around 3:00am cause I'd make a lot of money" :wink:

I'd never do such a thing but seriously...it's a thought...

[MaryAnarchy]

i wouldn't trust food that someone was selling out of a car

no way

:nixo:

[ao125]

Some guy was driving around my neighborhood once selling seafood and steaks out of the back of his car. Scary.

[MaryAnarchy]

some people do that, they are reps with omaha steaks or something

[ao125]

In this case, I don't think it was... but even so... would you buy steak and seafood out of the back of someone's car?

[MaryAnarchy]

hell no.

they could taint it in all kinds of disturbing ways

[starlight]

what if it was just pre-packaged stuff like chips but at jacked up prices?

[pluryou]

I wouldn't mind eating a lil something there. ;)

[Electric Head]

I tried selling meat from thje back of a truck in Atlanta. Not very lucritive, for me anyway. Country Fed Meat....*shudders*....every steak looked exactly the same. Same size, shape, color.

What made me quit was that someone asked how they tasted and I replied that I didn't know because I would never buy meat from someone I didn't know. Training program ended that day.

I didn't know the Tiger Mart was 24 hours :woot: then again I'm not usually hungry when leaving Nations. I just wanna go home and sleep!

[pluryou]

:D You 2 know me too well.

I do get hungry at the club sometimes. Thats why late night places open after you get out of the club are a great idea. :)

[Electric Head]

Like Bob and Edith's in Arlington.

[starlight]

dawn when you're with me how can you even think about being hungry??

:sexaddict:

LOL :wink:

[ao125]

Yay for Bob and Edith's and Yay for Sex Addicts!

[MaryAnarchy]

i don't know anything aobut either of those.

i have learned never to eat or drink anything acidic after teh rave

[starlight]

I wouldn't eat any food at teh rave because it might be infested with teh drugs :no:

:jk:

[ao125]

The only places I won't eat are the CrackDonalds next to Nation, the Wendy's next to Nation, and the Fried Chicken & Waffle place up off 14th.

[Electric Head]

Actually, this is where the sex addicts meat, I mean, meet.

[starlight]

Oh I am very picky about what and where I eat. I don't eat fast food. Except Chik-fil-a cause they're high quality and their food is pretty healthy and DAMN tasty.

I don't think I'd eat anywhere in DC really :no:

[ao125]

Lloyd's Carry Out at 18th & Florida is pretty good, but they are only open during business hours.

The Diner on 18th isn't bad either for 24-hr food.

[korbendallas]

I always feel so much better when I wake up after a night out...if I eat a decent meal after going out.

[Electric Head]

Not your typical diner....this place is actually good. Last time I was there they were playing a Phish concert on the big screen. Cool.

I'm the opposite. Cause you're not supposed to eat so close to going to bed cause your body won't digest it as well or some bs I dunno. But if I eat anytime within 2 hrs of going to bed I don't feel so great the next day :no:

That's why I never eat after Nations except :lovemachine:

Yes it is.....at least from what I can remember.....it's been weeks!

[MaryAnarchy]

hardees came out with a low carb burger

they just serve the burger without the bun, and in between two pieces of lettuce. i heard it on the radio today.

[Electric Head]

That kinda pathetic. What's more is that people will actually buy it thinking they're doing something good for themselves.

[korbendallas]

yeah.....good thing it's low carbs...especially with the 25 or more grams of fat the burger has.

how about all the low carb beers they are pushing....seems silly. I saw one commercial where they try to lead you to believe the beer is like a sports drink :D

[Electric Head]

What? Where was this stuff when I drank? That would have been less wierd as a breakfast drink than the vodka was.

Wish I had the plumbing to help you. Wow, that's a very sexy statement I just made! :)

[MaryAnarchy]

yeah, all these poeple on the adtkins diet.

if they only knew going out and raving all night would keep them in great shape...

[Electric Head]

Indeed.....lots of dancing.....hopefully some sweet cardio after.....what more could a person need?

[MaryAnarchy]

and if they only knew they only needed to cut out the simple carbohydrates in their diet...the sugars, sweets...the complex ones aren' that bad at all.

[Electric Head]

and WORK OUT! so many people want to lose weight, but sit on their couch. Doesn't work like that.

[starlight]

Yeah we should start a campaign that raving = weight loss. Hehehe :wink:

DCPimp~ what's this about plumbing to help me out? I like everyone it don't matter I'll take you :sexaddict:

The Adkins diet is a fucking joke. I hated when I was a waitress and people would do the "yeah I'd like a cheeseburger with no bun but extra (insert fatty toppings here) and a salad instead of fries"

Then they'd eat their food weird and it would annoy me.

Although I haven't met you in person, I've seen from your pic that it DOES really work. You could even be the spokesperson! Can I get in on the profits since I witnessed the creation of this soon-to-take-over-the-world-for-a-year-or-so diet fad?

nah, i got my stickliness from my mom. but i can pretend i was overweight and out of shape until i discovered the world of the rave

mental note...must..burn all old photos of me, replace with chubby kid photos.

[Electric Head]

I know you're kidding, and you are in shape....what to call being in shape from dancing.....hmmm, have to think more about that one....but anyway, I don't offer my plumbing to just anyone, so there you go.

I can see the 2 of you there.....HEY, there's gotta be a videa too, right?

[GOTHIKA]

They used to sell candy, but I guess that didn't make since when they stopped letting you bring candy into the club. . . if Nation sold a hot dog, I think it would cost about $3, but I guess if you're that hungry, you'll pay $3 for a hot dog.

[xMaXiMsBiFrEaKx]

hmmm there is nothing better than a good hot dog with cheese at 2 am..... :thumbsup:
