A friend was visiting from out of town and we were having dinner together. He suggested a burger place in Adams Morgan. I soon found out that Lucky Buns has the best burgers in DC.

The Old Ebbitt Grill
The Old Ebbitt Grill is an iconic Washington DC restaurant, situated right across the street from the White House. I've been meaning to go there for awhile now, and a visit from some relatives provided the opportunity to do so. We quickly found out that the Old Ebbitt Grill lives up to its hype.
Big Bear Cafe
I was in Washington DC on an errand and noted an interesting looking cafe at the corner of R Street and 1st Street NW. I returned there later to have lunch. I am glad I did as the Big Bear Cafe, with terrific atmosphere and great food, is now my favorite brunch spot.
irregardless
The cherry blossoms were blooming in Washington DC and many restaurants were having themed offerings. Looking over the options, one place stood out from the rest. A wine bar on H Street called irregardless. Did it meet my expectations? It exceeded them.
FishScale’s new menu
FishScale, a restaurant in the Shaw area of DC that specializes in fish burgers, has become one of my go to spots for a bite to eat. I've written about them before, but they recently added some great items to their menu that I want to highlight.
Convivial – DC Restaurant Week 2023
For Washington DC's winter restaurant week, I returned to an old favorite. Located one block north of the convention center by Mount Vernon Square, the French restaurant Convivial is always a pleasure.
GCDC Grilled Cheese Bar
While taking a class, I met a fellow foodie. He highly recommended a gourmet grilled cheese restaurant in downtown DC, just one block past the White House on Pennsylvania avenue. Skeptical, I tried it out. My friend was right, GCDC Grilled Cheese Bar is fantastic!
Masala Street Indian Eatery
I love Indian food and have it quite often. But I can't say that I have had Indian street food before. I was in Georgetown for an event and was looking for a place to eat after. When I saw Masala Street, I knew I had to try it. I'm glad I did, as the food is unique and delicious.
Mi Vida
Mi Vida has been on my list of restaurants to try ever since the Mexican Ambassador said it was her favorite restaurant in Washington DC. Recently I was in the Waterfront area and took the opportunity to try the place. Mi Vida is as good as the ambassador said.
Bandoola Bowl
One of my favorite places to dine, Mandalay Restaurant, has a related eatery in Georgetown. I was in the area recently for a festival and made it a point to try it out. Bandoola Bowl lives up to their reputation.
