jakebarnes Posted February 21, 2023 Posted February 21, 2023 Unrelated to the cigar discussions, but related to the best 30 days food thread I am creating this. Gonna be in the District for work through Friday. Any of the FOh'ers here have any good recommendations for dinner when I'm there? Plan on going to Shelly's or Casa de Montecristo at least one of the nights I am there as well (not for food, just for cigars). Appreciate any suggestions!

BlueRidgeFly Posted February 21, 2023 Posted February 21, 2023 Brasserie Beck, if you like good food and an amazing selection of Belgian beers 👍 1

Rhinoww Posted February 22, 2023 Posted February 22, 2023 Rasika, either location. The best Indian food. Fantastic. Get the fried spinach. A landmark. I try to go in most trips to DC. 1
treberty Posted February 22, 2023 Posted February 22, 2023 Jack Rose Dining Saloon. Insane selection of whiskies. Great food. Off the beaten paths, but really awesome, imo. 1

Expand I always try to make a trip to Shelly's when I go to D.C. I've had some great conversations there with complete strangers. 1
JustDave Posted February 23, 2023 Posted February 23, 2023 If you like spanish, Jaleo is great. Taberna del Alabardero is awesome too.

Owner is dickhead. Lived there for 7 years. Expand At how many places could you eat if you had to avoid all the dickhead owners?

Expand I've lived in DC for almost 30 years and the metro is kinda embarrassing if I'm being completely honest. Yeah, it could be WAY worse, but it should be massively better.
