Oya - Washington, DC

Saturday, 1/17/08, 9 pm - Chinatown

It was quite a small restroom for the relatively large restaurant. Three stalls and two sinks, but they seemed squeezed together. Of course it was modern looking with a curvy sink counter. But for a restuarant that has a waterfall blocking the kitchen window, the bathroom was boring - nothing on the walls. Just bright colors in the stalls. Half of the wall outside the stalls was a mirror and then sinks were on the other side. I was only able to get a shot of stall.

BLT Steak - Washington, DC

Friday, 1/9/09, 11 pm - Downtown

I guess I just expected more from the ladies room at this place. There was nothing that stood out. White walls, black stalls and sink counter. Everything was clean and the presentation was formal (please excuse the blur, but I took these with my blackberry and you have to hold it really still to get a good shot).



The one thing that did stand out was the pictures on the wall. They were of iconic women (though it's hard to make it out here) - Eleanor Roosevelt was one, though the others are escaping me now.
