We had a fun night at Lavo !! It’s a large and loud room. Food is average with a few fun items to share like the Basket Ball sized Meatball and huge 20 Layer Cake. Eggplant part was not bad. The vegetable sides had so much sodium my blood pressure […]

[flickrset id=”72157630013729642″ thumbnail=”square” overlay=”true” size=”large”] I checked out Bobby Flay’s (grill-boy as Ari of Entourage calls him) new venture in the burger joint frenzy. I grabbed my camera and walked a mile or so on a great day in DC. Once I arrived at Bobby’s, I viewed the menu on […]
[flickrset id=”72157629533530717″ thumbnail=”square” overlay=”true” size=”medium”] This is another great establishment owned by Chef Christian Constant. Les Cocottes is the french equivalent of eating at a causal diner. Seating is either at the counter or at counter height communal tables.

We were told that it was previously reserved however they have not arrived […]
[flickrset id=”72157627665204125″ thumbnail=”square” overlay=”true” size=”medium”] Highest quality ingredients, prepared perfectly and elegantly plated. I’m usually not a fan of the tasting menu fearing that after eating 10 tiny plates, I’ll leave hungry and seek out the nearest Pizza I can find. This was not the case at Agape Substance the […]

It’s much better than the American brand X. They also have a great Hot Chocolate Milano which is worth every delicious calorie it contains. Cafe Nero
I just mentioned our first departure we enjoyed ourselves so much we went back the very next weekend.

[flickrset id=”72157616348813320″ thumbnail=”small” overlay=”true” size=”medium”] A favorite with overnighting airline crews from around the world. The portions are large, beer is great and it’s cheap. What more could you ask for?? I have had better food for a few Euros more but it’s still a fun place.
