Saturday Breakfast: Founding Farmers
After a late night out, and too many old fashioneds, nothing settles the stomach like a solid brunch. Founding farmers had a lot in the way of vegetarian fare, and not your typical options (i.e. "eggs and taters" or bland-ass oatmeal). Their Red-Flannel Hash, was a mix of beets, fennel and potatoes YUM, and the multi-grain bread that came with it may have been made by someone sexy, because shiiiiit, it was so delicious and toasted the perfect amount for scooping up some of that hollandaise. As a prequel to that we ordered some beignets, which came with three sauces: chocolate, caramel, and raspberry. Possibly best beignets I've ever had. They were made fresh, and were so doughy and delicious in the middle, that I burned my mouth no less than three times taking those babies down. After all that and some coffee, I felt full, satisfied, and confident that I wouldn't vom on any national monuments.

Saturday Lunch/Snack: Oyamel
Taking a break from some Smithsonians, we stopped into a Mexican restaurant for some snacks and to re-fuel for the walk home. This place was also small plates. I got a mushroom taco, some fritters, and we split some fries with mole sauce. The taco was pretty good, the fritters were "meh", but the fries were CRAZY-good! As a french-fry connoisseur (as most vegetarians are) I wish I could have traded in everything else I ate, and just got three orders of the fries. The picture doesn't do them justice.
I think this was the "Priyanka" drink |
