You may think you know the scene at Rosa Mexicano, but I’m here to tell you things are changing. Exciting things. Earlier this month, General Manager Greg Eisenhart and Beverage Director Courtenay Greenleaf introduced a slew of new infused agave cocktails paired with their best bar bite selections. Unlike many […]
Tucked away in the truck delivery streets of Union Market is an oasis unlike any other in the area. Easily one of [if not THE] elite Italian restaurant(s) in DC, Masseria is a must on your restaurant bucket list. From 3 to 6 course tastings, you can personalize your meal […]
In any other establishment, a man balancing on the edge of a bar sink wielding a blowtorch would be cause for alarm. At Bonfire, it just means Chad Spangler is about to make a cocktail. If you’ve walked around Downtown DC in the last month or two, you may have […]
My first taste of sparkling alcohol was André Peach Moscato in a convenience store in Foggy Bottom – far from Nuit du Champagne! I know. But trust me, it was a great night. Fortunately, my palate has matured since then, which is why I was thrilled to get a firsthand glimpse […]
Looking for something quick and red-white-and-blueish to throw together for your Fourth of July party? Never fear, shortcake is here. I wanted to make a patriotic dessert for America’s big day, but making a rectangular cake and plopping fruit on it in a flag pattern has somehow lost its charm. […]
The skies were clear and the champagne was flowing on Saturday night as VIDA Fitness celebrated its 10 Year Diamond Anniversary at the U Street Penthouse Pool & Lounge. Ten years ago in June, the very first VIDA Fitness opened its doors in Gallery Place. Now, fitness lovers can choose […]
In need of a new and vibrant summer cocktail hotspot? Your oasis is Stanton & Greene. Just a hop, skip, and a jump from the Capitol building. I was so glad to be part of Stanton & Greene’s summer cocktail bonanza this Monday. It is clear that Stanton & Greene […]
The highly anticipated opening of RPM Italian in D.C. was the place to be on Monday night. With RPM Chicago having such great success, it had left us wondering when area native, Giuliana Rancic, would acquire her D.C. restaurant real estate. The wait is over. The excitement in the room […]
Have you heard? Gusto Italian Grill is serving up fast casual Italian in Bethesda and Silver Spring! I am shamelessly content in my NW DC bubble, but lately I’ve been really trying to branch out to other neighborhoods and (gasp!) even hop the metro to explore more of the DMV […]
In the days of yore, opting for diner comfort food often meant sacrificing style. While there’s absolutely nothing wrong with your favorite mom-and-pop shop, sometimes an upscale dinner atmosphere is simply needed. Those days have thankfully come to an end with Silver, Bethesda’s new American Brasserie. The latest concept from the founders […]
In a truly shocking turn of events, the weather gods smiled down upon the District for Memorial Day Weekend. I spent a breezy Sunday morning exploring neighborhoods all over DC, stopping only for an iced coffee and a few farmer’s market purchases. We weren’t about to waste the sunshine sitting […]
There are a lot of things between bread in DC that are amazing (we’re looking at you Le Diplomate, Duke’s, Alfies, etc). Some sammys are a bit less known than others. Here are DC’s seven (off the radar) sammys you need to eat right now. Hopefully we’re putting some new […]
