I called the other night to book a reservation, and it looks like they have moved to a tasting menu only format. I haven't been since September. Any recommendations on new things on the menu I should try??

Welcome to the neighborhood Is the new menu online yet? Looking forward to stopping by soon!

I still love those Marvelous Market brownies. Has the recipe ever shown up anywhere?

Also, I've recently discovered that it's the best place to buy olives in DC. You can fill up a medium sized container for $5.99, which ends up weighing about 1.25 lbs. Compare with Whole Wallet, which charges $8.99/lb for olives now.

I still love those brownies too. About two years ago I requested the recipe, to no avail... Anyone else have better luck?

Actually, if you're looking in that neighborhood (Georgetown/M Street), I'd recommend La Chaumiere. Charming atmosphere with a fireplace in the middle -- perfect for a cold night. It's a few doors down from Au Pied Bistro and they do a good job with hearty French fare. Haven't been to Au Pied, but I've heard some negative things....
