Now that we are all emerging from our compassionately built caves, many of you are beginning to ask, where should I go for ____ ? Where do I begin. DC has an amazing food scene, and this is only the tip of the iceberg, in full transparency. I guarantee I am missing many while few you might think, why is that there?
