Don’t deny it: you go through at least one case of La Croix each week, but if you’re really being honest with yourself, it’s more like two or three. And everyone you know has their go-to flavor about which they are way more passionate than they should be. You’ve seen relationships […]

Cold outside? Warm up with some goulash
Ah goulash. I discovered it on an insanely cold November night in Budapest. Basically, it’s the Hungarian version of beef stew, seasoned with a whole bunch of paprika. Recently, a friend of mine and I were feeling nostalgic while watching the Budapest episode of Anthony Bourdain’s “Parts Unknown” and decided […]

The Unexpected Luxury of the Old Hickory Steakhouse
This past weekend I decided to take a trip down to the National Harbor for dinner. The Old Hickory Steakhouse has a new February menu and they wanted us to preview the new dishes and wine pairings. As a DC local, I have sadly not spent much time in the National […]

Raindrop [Cake], Drop Top
A half a year after this trend hit social media, I thought it was time I sample a Raindrop Cake. Thanks to Goldbely, you can now order crazy things like this and have them shipped directly to your door. The only thing different about this food is you have to assemble […]
Pop in to Miracle on 7th Street, the Christmas Pop-Up Bar
I finally bit the bullet, and got in the cold, outdoor line for Miracle on 7th Street. Fifty minutes later, my group got in. While I’m normally not one for the cold, I’d say it was definitely worth the pain. No other place in DC has Christmas spirit quite like […]
Whaley’s is Raising the Bar for Brunch
Now maybe I’m being a diva, but I am getting so sick of bottomless brunches with horrible quality food. If I’m going to eat out, I don’t want it to be an absolute waste of my money. So let’s make a pact to eat GOOD brunches from now on, ok? […]
A Reason to Cross the River: Evening Star Cafe
I’m going to keep this short simple: VIRGINIA IS NOT THAT FAR AWAY. Hop in an uber, grab a car, or metro across the river (heck you can even bike), and you will expand your dining options ten-fold…And then you will be disappointed that you didn’t do it sooner. Of […]
Guide to DC’s Thanksgiving Sandwiches, Because Leftovers Should Never End
from the archives… The first Thanksgiving I can really remember was typically anticlimactic. My dad had to work, his girlfriend was on a diet where carbs were declared the anti-Christ, and I had just lost my Gameboy privileges for neglecting to feed my goldfish (RIP Gilbert). After a day spent […]
