By day Nick Sevilla is a middle school math teacher in Germantown, Maryland. By night – and most weekends – he’s “Mr. 8 That,” a TikTok food creator with over 25,000 followers watching him eat his way through the DMV’s hidden gems, from Nigerian restaurants in Wheaton to food trucks on Rockville Pike run by former Michelin chefs.
In the 146th dinner interview, Nick shares how growing up around his dad’s Bethesda restaurant shaped his love of food, how a pandemic gaming account that hit 174,000 followers led him to content creation, and why a plate of Maryland-style pizza from a dive bar would be his last meal on earth.
