What started as a collaborative brain-child between us and the popular website FamousDC.com, “Feasting Famously” is a interview column where we sit down with the hottest DC chefs, local celebrities, food bloggers, politicos, and more to get their take on not only the DC food scene, but where they’re eating and what’s lurking in their fridge.
If you want to nominate someone for an interview, please email us their name, occupation, how to contact them, and any other information you think we should know.
