  15. The Best Bites Blog did an Early Look at Domaso last week: http://www.washingtonian.com/blogarticles/...bites/5800.html Erin wrote, "Domaso highlights northern-Italian cuisine - and that doesn't mean just Tuscany. 'I'm sick of people coming back from Italy who only rave about Tuscany, or think that Northern Italian food only means the Tuscan kind,' says Italian-born chef Massimo Fedozzi. Though he pays homage to the region with his panzanella (a traditional Tuscan bread salad with tomatoes, cucumbers, red onion, and basil), much of the menu is inspired by the restaurant's namesake, a fishing village in the Lombardy region." Cheers Catherine Washingtonian.com
  16. Our site just put up a bunch of updated Thanksgiving listings, and the full menus that these restaurants will be serving, here: http://www.washingtonian.com/blogarticles/...bites/5798.html We've got prices, times, etc. Happy Thanksgiving! Catherine washingtonian.com
  17. Ann Limpert wrote up the event for washingtonian.com; she noted tons of hilarious quotes from Bourdain: http://www.washingtonian.com/blogarticles/...bites/5717.html Some excerpts: His sure-fire hangover cure: "Roll a really good joint and huff that before you get out of bed. Then have a cold Coca-Cola. Then have something like cold Kung Pao chicken or some very spicy leftovers. The trilogy of opulence." On the inner workings of Top Chef, on which he was a judge: "Judges are totally isolated from the chefs. They're really careful. Those guys live in a gulag - no TV, no Internet, no cookbooks. The worst food of the week gets you kicked off. It's not 'She's blond with a nice rack - good for ratings.' It doesn't work that way." Cheers, Catherine washingtonian.com
  18. We have a huge photo slideshow and recap of the evening here: http://www.washingtonian.com/blogarticles/...bites/5693.html An excerpt from the post: Best soul-warming soup: Butterfield 9's pumpkin soup, made from all kinds of pumpkins (white, orange, and green) and garnished with pancetta and apple. It was like autumn in liquid form, and something we're thinking of recreating for Thanksgiving. Chef Michael Harr was two for two: His soup sat next to slices of seared elk, which could have won Best Reindeer-Like Meat That Once Had Antlers. Best-looking chef in skinny jeans: A tie: rabble-rousing TV personality Anthony Bourdain, who nailed the chiseled and grizzled older-man-with-grandeur George Clooney look, and Barton Seaver, whose form-fitting dark jeans and intentionally messy hair epitomized the hipster-chef vibe. Incidentally, Seaver's style secret is that he buys women's denim. Cheers, Catherine Washingtonian.com
