Old Ellicott City

This is a cute little town right by our home that has cafes, small shops, and gives off "Star's Hollow" from Gilmore Girls kind of vibes.

Tysons Corner Mall

This mall is very close to DC. It has many nice Muslim coffee shops, halal places to eat, and Hafsa's favorite desi restaurant, Cha Tea House, which is very cute inside. Hafsa's family typically orders food from here and then goes to a nearby plane-watching park that has airplanes land right over you!

Gravelly Point - Hafsa's Top Recommendation

This park is located across the water and next to the runway at the Reagan National Airport. The airplanes land right over you! This park has access to ice cream trucks for the kids, a soccer goalpost, a pretty view of the Washington Monument, the capital building, and the famous landmarks in DC. This place is best for picnics and is an Ansari family favorite!
