Hello all!

If you’ve been following me for a while, you know I’m a *huge* foodie and that Restaurant Week is a pretty big deal here in DC. Since we’re the nation’s capital, we have cuisine from nearly every culture and country around the world and this city constantly has incredible new restaurants popping up alongside DC staples.

For Winter Restaurant Week 2023, I did a mix of my go-to favorites like La Chaumiere and Supra, and added in some great new restaurants that I’d never been to before but can’t wait to return to! Restaurant Week is my favorite time to try out new and high end restaurants that I may not get to go to otherwise. I always aim to end Restaurant Week with new additions to my dining roster, and this season I definitely have a few more.

Below I’ll share my top picks from each spot – I hope you get to visit these locations soon around DC!

Tuesday – La Chaumiere

Top picks for me and my friends: The asparagus soup, garlic & butter mussels, salmon in puff pastry, poached pear, and flourless chocolate cake.

Thursday – Bar Chinois

Top picks: roasted mushroom salad, 1970’s garlic noodles with fried tofu, and matcha crème brûlée.

Friday – Amazonia

Top picks: madurito, brussel sprout and chilean seabass anticucho, tallarin saltado de verduras, arros chaufa amazonico, chocolucuma, and texturas de amazonia.
