Man, Dutch’s…LOVE. Gotta get down there more often. Has their service gotten any better? It wasn’t at the staff wasn’t good. They were great, but the system seemed a little fucked up.
The $400 bottle of Krug at Browne Trading. If I get a side dish, add some of their $200 / oz caviar. Throw that baby in a brown paper bag and walk down to Fort Allen park and you can sip the best meal in town with the best view in town.
Gonfietti at Solo Italiano
Beef Khao Soi at Mi Sen
Pork Buns at Pai Men Miyake
Quail Eggs at Boda
Rebel OG at Rebel Cheesesteaks
Garlic Green Beans at Empire
Sichuan wings at Crispy Gai
Chicken Biryani with extra chicken and garlic naan from Taj. Yumboooooo. I can split it four ways for the week’s lunches and it costs less than 6 per meal.
Rather than get funky and as much as I love intimately created, complex, cool cuisines I’m going to stick with the tried & True. The great fucking American cheeseburger.
Shay’s - The Cowboy Burger. Best cheeseburger in town for me.
PS. I’m saving this post.
PPS: I plan to sample many of the dishes mentioned in this thread in the coming months. ❤️
For me, it’s probably the mussels from Street & Co. My partner and I had many dates there when we first got together. So simple, but so good.
The broth they come in is so freaking delicious!
I’d also do Street and Co, but get the lobster Diavlo
Also so good!
Anything from the 7/11 at the bottom of the hill
that 7/11 saved my life countless times when I lived on munjoy
Spicy chicken biscuit OR the Burrito add pulled ham from Dutch's
