Daikaya

I had lunch at Daikaya with my colleagues David and Charlotte on 5-24-17. I had been meaning to go here forever and I’m so glad I finally did. The food was fantastic! Atmosphere: 4 out of 5 Food & Drink: 5 out 5 How cute is this place?! The restaurant is kind of tiny but it […]

Dine-N-Dash

This blog post is a little different than usual. I’m actually posting about something before it happens because it’s a big event and you can come too! If you’d like to check it out you can get tickets here! Dine-N-Dash is basically like Taste of D.C. but instead of all the restaurants sending their food and […]

The Source by Wolfgang Puck

I had dinner at The Source with my girlfriend Lauren on 5-10-17. This was no ordinary dinner: we were guests of Chef Russell Smith for the Lanson Champagne dinner! It was absolutely fabulous and so special to be a part of. Atmosphere: 5 out of 5 Food & Drink: 4 out of 5 This is the […]

Tabard Inn

I had lunch at the Tabard Inn with methodologist extraordinaire Don Dillman on 5-10-2017. I just love this place. It’s such a classic D. C. restaurant and the food was really, really good. Atmosphere: 4 out of 5 Food & Drink: 4 out of 5 The restaurant is housed within an historic hotel and it’s […]

Restaurant Nora

I had dinner at Restaurant Nora with my friend and colleague Margie on 5-5-2017. The restaurant is an institution in D.C. and certainly within the organic food movement. My visit was bittersweet given that Nora closes on June 30th. I was lucky to get to experience it. Atmosphere: 3 out of 5 Food & Drink: 4 […]

Anxo

I had brunch at Anxo with my girlfriends Abby, Katie, and Kathy on 4-29-2017. It was a fun meal full of cider, pintxos, and a friendly staff in a very chill space. Atmosphere: 4 out of 5 Food & Drink: 4 out of 5 The outdoor patio looks like a blast but it was unseasonably […]

Mirabelle*

I had lunch at Mirabelle with my friends and colleagues Juliana and Diane on 4-26-2017. *Full disclosure: Mirabelle is not in the Michelin Guide but that’s only because it opened in March 2017 and the Guide came out in late 2016. My prediction is this gem will not only be in the guide, it will […]

Soi 38

I had lunch at Soi 38 with my friend/survey research idol Nancy on 4-21-2017. I don’t know how I’d never been here before given its proximity to both my old and new offices. Between the beautiful decor and delicious food, though, I will certainly make up for that in the future. Atmosphere: 5 out of […]

Doi Moi

I had dinner at Doi Moi with my old survey research methodology coworkers Ruth, Arnold, Scott, Nick B and Nick H on 4-19-2017. The space was beautiful, the vibe was very chill, and the food was really good. Atmosphere: 5 out of 5 Food & Drink: 4 out of 5 Doi Moi, part of Max […]
