Every person was given a little blurb of copy. Eater DC pulled out these quotes
Then, coming in at #49, Alefantis makes the list as both a "restaurateur and bon vivant" thanks to the "liberal twentysomethings in khakis" who eat at Comet Ping Pong and the "[m]ore established progressives" who flock to Buck's Fishing & Camping. Also, "If you don't know him, you aren't wearing your scarf right." Well OK then.
His "power" seems to be on the social scene because people eat in his restaurants. You have heard of the idea of a "trendsetter."
Sure. But OK. So he is such a "trend-setter" that he has 13 other properties in Washington D.C., McLean VA, Falls Church VA, and NY City? He sells THAT MUCH PIZZA? No way. And AGAIN, back to the Clinton Foundation (which is why I even care about the guy; I am not a sex-ring RICO cop) why is George Soros and the CF donating to him? Something else has to be going on. And I am sorry, but such a "trend-setter" would surely garner the interest of some lifestyle magazine editor who would have done at least one piece telling of his rise to fame.

I want to see Comet's books. I would bet large amounts of money that they are laundering money.
