Miss out on some of our blog posts from this week? Worry not—we're here to fill you in on what the most popular blog posts were from the past seven days. See below for our top five.
More Details (and a Menu!) From Adour We’ve got some new info about the team that will lead the highly anticipated Adour, the restaurant from three-Michelin-starred chef and restaurateur Alain Ducasse scheduled to open this September in downtown DC’s revamped St. Regis hotel.
First Look: La Sandia Between the noisy toddlers and the electronica soundtracks, even a short walk through Tysons Corner Center can be an audiovisual assault. There’s no respite at La Sandía, a Mexican restaurant and tequila bar where you’re greeted by a booming merengue beat and a Frida Kahlo palette of colors on its walls.
Where & When: What to Do This Weekend Ben’s Chili Bowl celebrates 50 years—and you (and all of Washington) are invited! Plus—a vintage trunk show, the closing of the Hong Kong film festival, standup comedy, a Thai festival, and more in this weekend’s picks.
DC Designers: Abigail de Casanova Check out our new style feature, DC Designers, where we highlight a local designer who has caught our eye.
Restaurant Week: Love it or Hate it? We’re nearing the end of the latest round of DC’s Restaurant Week, which wraps this Sunday. We want to hear your reports on from the field: Did you walk away from a schlocky green salad and lame pasta feeling ripped off? Or did your $20.08/$30.08 land you a glorious, gluttonous feast?
