Last night I went and interviewed the chefs at Acqua Al 2 for a food blog I just started (foodstaycation.wordpress.org). The place originally opened in Florence in 1978 and just opened in May in Eastern Market. With Chef Ari Gejdenson at the helm, Acqua Al 2 boasts pure Tuscan cuisine--highly recommend the Filetto al Mirtillo--steak with blueberry sauce. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting and includes a display of plates that DC "celeb" visitors--Rahm Emanual, Charles Mann, have signed.

Hello my name is Emma and I am a recent Georgetown University graduate--excited about breaking the "Georgetown Bubble" and exploring restaurants in the rest of the city. I am getting more and more into cooking and love exploring different cuisines--which DC definitely has to offer. I am on the lookout for any suggestions of places to go whether it be happy hour, bars, or good restaurant experiences.
