  1. I have to say, I really enjoy Litteri and Sons off Florida. They don't have the fancy pork loin and raab (which I love), but the old-school subs at the sub shop on Monroe are the bomb.
  2. I can also vouch for Seed Savers Exchange. I got great herbs, arugula and tomatoes from them.
  3. I've always liked Petits Plat in Woodley Park. Comfortable dining area, consistently solid bistro cooking, and friendly staff. The wife and I have been going there for 8 years.
  4. The Jean-Talon Market in Montreal is rad. I went a few Septembers ago, and they were full of great produce and fruit, in addition to the best maple syrup ever. Also, the meat market has horse, in case you're interested. In talking to my friends that live there, apparently Montreal wasn't a great food town until recently, but you wouldn't know it by this market.
  5. The Wild Boar stew was just the thing to warm me up on this freezing afternoon. I thought it was deliciously seasoned and perfect.
  6. I guess I probably should have figured that out for myself. Thanks though.
  7. Calling all Rockwellians-- Where's the best spot for dim sum this side of Shanghai?
  8. Isn't that one of those "I'd tell you, but I'd have to kill you situations?"
  9. Nothing against Adour, but how are restaurants expected to source "the highest of high-end ingredients" without knowing anything about the market they are opening in? The recent article in the Post online regarding restaurants misrepresenting items on their menus is the tip of the iceberg. My link I think DC diners would be shocked if better informed about what exactly "the best ingredients" really means to some restaurants.
  10. The wife and I went in recently and everything was magnificent. Green bean salad with pancetta, proscuitto and ricotta crostini, pesto pasta and veal scallopini were all perfectly executed. This place is a cook's dream. The cookies at the end were perfect too. Kudos.
  11. Awhile ago, Cashion's had an incredible bouillabaise, though I'm not sure it's still on the menu.
