Correct. I wish someone would do one in Korean.
A = Ann Sandra, B = Blockbuster,K = Burger King
You are right on all three counts.
P = Petco?, T = Harris Teeter?
P is Petco. T is not Harris Teeter. All the businesses in the Annandale alphabet are in zip code 22003.
Here is a clue – Among the letters that have not been identified so far, C, I, Q, R, S, and T are from places that sell food.
S – Shilla Bakery, C – Cue Club Cafe, X – Maxx Fitness, F – Foster Bank
Another clue – Q and R are the only ones that are not the first letter of a business name.
woops.. forgot to add 2 moer to the list I just posted: R – ARA fusion, E – Antique Emporium?
You are right about the R but wrong about the E. The E, O, and Z are for businesses related to "personal care."
V is Vacuums Unlimited on Pine Street
It is Vacuums Unlimited, but it is on Annandale Road.
T = Tikka Bakery. I am noticing places I have never noticed before.
Yes!
Actually it's Tikal Bakery, and its Guatamelan.
I will have to check out Tikal.
E = Eden Nail and Spa along Columbia Pike.
Z = Zee (?) Beauty and Barber Supply along Annandale Rd
That is correct. Not sure if it is Zee or just Z though.
j = Jiffy Lube?
Yep. Another clue – One of the letters not yet guessed is a bank and one is health related.
M = Le Matin de Paris on LRT
Nope
Can you make a new post updating everything that has been guessed and the ones that still need to be guessed?
