Washington, D.C.: 2019 - The Food Enthusiast’s Complete Restaurant Guide
()
About this ebook
There are many people who are enthusiastic about food—the cooking of it, the preparation of it, the serving of it, and let’s not forget the eating of it.
But Andrew Delaplaine is the ultimate Food Enthusiast.
This is another of his books with spot-on reviews of the most exciting restaurants in town. Some will merit only a line or two, just to bring them to your attention. Others deserve a half page or more.
“Exciting” does not necessarily mean expensive. The area’s top spots get the recognition they so richly deserve (and that they so loudly demand), but there are plenty of “sensible alternatives” for those looking for good food handsomely prepared by cooks and chefs who really care what they “plate up” in the kitchen.
For those with a touch of Guy Fieri, Delaplaine ferrets out the best food for those on a budget. That dingy looking dive bar around the corner may serve up one of the juiciest burgers in town, perfect to wash down with a locally brewed craft beer.
Whatever your predilection or taste, cuisine of choice or your budget, you may rely on Andrew Delaplaine not to disappoint.
Delaplaine dines anonymously at the Publisher’s expense. No restaurant listed in this series has paid a penny or given so much as a free meal to be included.
Bon Appétit!

Introduction
Because it is our nation’s Capital where so much of our history is remembered in national institutions such as the Smithsonian. If you can’t feel like an American here, you’re not trying. Walking the Mall or staring up at Lincoln’s grim visage sitting in his marble chair. He walked the same path you are walking. It’s a very sobering experience to visit the Capital, and something every American should do at least once.
Besides all the marble monuments, imposing edifices and traffic congestion, there’s fabulous shopping, lots of free museums, great restaurants, a nightlife scene as active as most other places and vibrantly humming communities living the life of Washington every day and every night.
Politics is to Washington what movies are to L.A., so whatever bar you find yourself in after a long day traipsing through museums, be careful: you might be standing next to a White House assistant or a CIA spy. You never know what will happen in Washington.
