August, 2008 Marks the 50th anniversary of Ben's Chili Bowl. It is a historic institution in Washington, DC and one not to miss when visiting the area. Their Half Smokes have gathered many celebrities and politicos over the past five decades. I had a great opportunity to shoot a small piece there thanks to Nizam Ali, founder Ben Ali's son.
