Base on Board is a tabletop game that aims to simulate the strategy and chance that goes into a real baseball game. We chatted with Matt JS Kho about the project, where the idea came from, and what baseball fans might learn from playing.

"writers" and "readers" like to think they're very special, and they're not. writing isn't any more special than any other craft, reading doesn't make you better than someone who listens to music or likes tv.

Government workers 👇🏾

Lunch is on the house:

Being in the heart of downtown DC, we love that so many of our Federal employees stop by during lunch for a Donburi at China Chilcano or a Fútbol Club at Jaleo. And just because the government is shut down doesn't mean you have to miss out on your favorite lunch spot- because this time, its on us!
Join us for lunch from 11:30 AM to 3:00 PM at any of our participating restaurants and enjoy a free lunch item when you present your government ID-you heard that right! Dine in with us Monday through Friday and choose your favorite: a sandwich at Jaleo, a donburi at China Chilcano, a wrap or pita at Zaytinya, or a torta at Oyamel.
We've always believed in serving our community with open arms and good food-no shutdown can stop that.
