Zucchini, squash, sweet peppers, marinara. Happy hour $6
Circa at Foggy Bottom, Washington DC
Sheesh, this place gets packed for happy hour! I guess that’s natural since it’s pretty much on the street from George Washington University campus. You can’t beat six bucks for this large plate of fried, artery-clogging goodness though! 😉
John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.
With sauteed mushrooms, lardons. Lunch set $25
Central Michel Richard, Washington DC
This salad was simple and delicious! I loved the combination of the light crisp frisee with the earthy mushrooms and fatty salty lardons. Noms!
Bread and butter. Complimentary
Andrew Jackson statue, Lafayette Square.
Shiro-miso, roast pork (chashu), bean sprout, onion, garlic, ground pork, nori, and scallion. Add butabara kakuni (pork belly). $16.25
Daikaya, Washington DC
This place is super popular and busy during lunch (and I’m sure at night as well). I was able to squeeze into the counter to enjoy my bowl of ramen. The spicy miso broth very tasty, but I feel like it was a bit on the salty side. I’m glad I opted for the additional pork belly.
Small kitchen area where the magic happens!
