Are You A Peacock or a Penguin?

On my trip to visit my daughters recently I took a few different books to read. The one I want to share with you is A Peacock in the Land Of Penguins. I believe everyone experiences a time in their life when they don’t fit in…when they want to stand up for themselves for being different from the rest of the pack. Some of us do, most of us do not.

Although this book focuses on the business world, the information is valuable from a business or personal perspective. When your view differences from others, how do you handle it? Are you confident? Do you stay silent or do you go along with the majority? Are you a peacock in the land of penguins?

The Owners Of Fast Gourmet To Launch Second Restaurant In Dupont

Get excited D.C. foodies: The people behind Fast Gourmet are getting ready to launch their second venture.

The restaurant, which will be called “TakEatEasy”, will be located at 1990 M Street in Dupont and should open by the end of March, Fast Gourmet General Manager and Co-owner Manuel Olivera confirmed in an interview.

“The concept is still being worked on,” Olivera said.  “It will have a great quality of cuisine in a very calm and chill atmosphere.  What we are going to try to achieve is produce a great quality of food in a very relaxed environment.”

Olivera said that TakEatEasy’s menu will be “more ambitious” than Fast Gourmet, the gourmet sandwich shop located in a gas station at the corner of 14th and W Streets NW, which has taken the city by storm.
