Perfect Sunday brunch spot! Smoked Chicken & Apple Sausage, Ginger Scones, and French Toast were all very tasty. Of course I also got a pot of tea!

Fish Market
DC has a fish market. Say what? It is located under Highway 395, a hidden gem. It is a fun family hangout place. I don't think I need to tell you how yummy that crabcake is.
Chop’t
There seems to be more healthy food choices in the DC metro area. I tried out Chop’t as a quick dinner before going to the Wizards game. You can pick your own ingredients and make it into a salad or a wrap. They also have an existing menu that you can choose from. I got the Rocky Mountain Cobb Salad (grilled chicken, craisins, walnuts and crumbled blue cheese chop’t with romaine lettuce). The staff gathers your ingredients in a bowl and then dump everything on a board. Yes, they chop it, for real. After the hard work of chopping, the salad is now put back in a bowl to toss with their special dressing. I found this concept very interesting. Many places offer “chopped salad,” but nothing like this. It is chopped in front of your eyes! Sorry I don't have pictures of this place. Next time I go, I will be more prepared.

Ben’s Chili Bowl
You can’t go to DC without eating at Ben’s. You just can’t! For “people in the know,” you order the half smoke and you will not regret it!

Hello Cupcake (CLOSED)
Yes, it had me at HELLO. I have tried Georgetown Cupcake and Alexandria Cupcake, but my heart belongs to Hello Cupcake. Maybe it’s the cheerful decoration (BTW, it won the Interior Design Award at the 19th annual Inform Awards), but the sweetness of the cupcake is just right with a cup of coffee. I had Tiramisu and it was really good!

Rogue States (CLOSED)
A picture is worth a thousand words. So there.

G Street Food
I went before the lunch crowd and the bread was still baking. It was a shame because I was not able to sample the sandwiches, which were 80% of the menu. But I would think the sandwiches are good, or at least fresh, since they bake the bread in house. Anyhow, so I ordered the Japanese curry over rice. It tasted like something you can make at home but I think that is exactly the point. Not everyday you get to bring lunch from home. So, something homemade for lunch, what is better than that? G Street Food actually serves street snacks from around the world for breakfast and lunch. What a brilliant and fun idea! I have to go back next time to try some other dishes.
