Chicken Bott Boi, Hog Maw, Lebanon Bologna, Chicken Corn Soup, and countless other things...
Though as far as just plain local food joints, there's a place called The Sandwich Man that makes pretty much the best subs you're going to find in the area. I try to get there once a week if I can.

We have a place that serves it here in Brockport, so I guess I thought it was an all-over thing but "Unwrapped" made it seem not so. |  wmatistic

The very obvious Poutine, which for the uninformed is french fries, gravy, and cheese curds. You can buy this virtually anywhere.
The second is the Shawarma with the surprisingly large Lebanese population around here. That would be a pita wrap with chicken or beef, garlic sauce, onions, tomatoes, lettuce, a few other toppings, and often a side of garlic potatoes. | El Nastio

To add to the Ottawa thing, we also have "Beaver Tails", a popular fried dough treat. Click Here (en.wikipedia.org) for more info and Click Here (beavertailsinc.com) for a picture. I find them to be yummy!

That or he just liked to experiment with his food. I used to dunk fresh bagels into grape soda when I was a kid, but I wouldn't call it a DC area mix just because I did it.

I'd never even heard of she-crap soup until I moved to Virginia Beach; now I order it whenever I see it on the menu. One of the strange things about it is that, I guess due to the combination of spices, the soup tastes colder than it probably really is. Or maybe it's actually served colder than other soups, I don't know.
And I find it funny, I find it kind of sad

Personally, I can't stand cider after a traumatic experience in my early youth, but I'll always go for a pint of ale.
*Not technically "in" the South West, but still definitely Westcountry, with the rural accent and everything.
