Eat Like Me: April’s Best Dishes

‘Grilled Cheese & Tomato Soup’ courtesy of ‘[F]oxymoron’ This month saw me head to Spain for a family trip, where I ate my weight in jamon. To prepare for the trip I didn’t bother learning any Spanish, but I did make sure to eat a ton of American comfort food so I wouldn’t miss the [...]

‘Random Acts’ courtesy of ‘Burnt Pixel’ Food truck time. It’s the only thing that’ll make you feel better after waiting for two hours at the post office…unless you’re in a two hour food truck line. 1 person likes this post. Like Unlike

We Love Food: Seventh Hill Pizza

‘Seventh Hill Pizza’ courtesy of ‘kspidel’ Last summer, in a fit of humidity-induced insanity, my friends and I decided to taste test non-delivery pizzas around town. There were seven pies, and in an attempt to branch out a little, I picked up one from Seventh Hill. I figured this Eastern Market spot (which no one [...]

Eat Like Me: March’s Best Dishes

’00374-04Crop’ courtesy of ‘furcafe’ This month got off to a bit of a slow start food-wise. I had a few lackluster meals and a few blah-worthy chain restaurant lunches that didn’t bode well for a month of culinary excellence. I ended strong though, with trips to Bar Pilar, Urbana and my new love of my [...]

We Love Food: Hank’s Oyster Bar

‘P1010522′ courtesy of ‘sygyzy’ Hank’s Oyster Bar has all the makings of being my go-to secret neighborhood joint — that perfectly undiscovered gem, with amazing food and an owner who remembers me so I never have to wait for a table. In a perfect world, yes, this would be the case. But this is not [...]

J&G Steakhouse Debuts Their New Bar Menu

  I’ll be the first person to admit that the area around the White House isn’t exactly where I spend my free time. The first time I have to shove a tourist in to a crosswalk when there’s less than twenty seconds left in the little countdown, I lose my mind and hop the Metro [...]

Penn Quarter Farmers Market Opens Today

‘Penn Quarter Farmer’s Market #2′ courtesy of ‘[F]oxymoron’ Today may not seem like a good day to wander around outside, but sometimes the draw of tables full of vegetables and homemade goodies is just too much to pass up. After their winter hiatus, the Penn Quarter Farmers Market opens back up today and will be open [...]

The 2011 RAMMY Noms Are Out

‘Restaurant’ courtesy of ‘kingkool68′ Last night, in front of a ballroom full of nervous (and slightly tipsy) chefs and restaurateurs, the 2011 RAMMY nominations were announced. As Washington’s answer to the James Beard Awards, the RAMMYs carry some serious clout around these parts. There are a few restaurants that show up a number of times [...]

We Love Outdoor Dining: Our Favorite Spots Around Town

‘indigo landing at dusk’ courtesy of ‘needlessspaces’ Now that the weather is starting to turn for the better (don’t mind that pesky rain), all I can think about is eating and drinking outside. And in Washington, where the appropriate outdoor dining season is about two weeks long, it pays to be organized. That is why [...]

We Eat, We Write, We (Hopefully) Win Awards

‘Corey Lee’s James Beard Award’ courtesy of ‘patrick_h’ Newest food town my tush. We’re here, we’re delicious, get used to it. Need proof? The James Beard Award Nominees are out and our fair city made quite the impression. Well, that statement is sort of misleading. You know that annoying saying, that D.C. is Hollywood for ugly [...]

We Love Food: Zorba’s Cafe

‘Zorba’s Cafe’ courtesy of ‘Mr. T in DC’ So now that it is sort of starting to get warmer (right? RIGHT?) all I can think about is eating and drinking outside. As a native Washingtonian, I know that the window of outdoor eating opportunity here in our nation’s capital is small, and I like to [...]
