Kathy Goes to Washington

I haven't been to DC in years, but the newlyweds and the cherry blossoms (that I missed; I have the worst timing!) gave me an excuse to visit. I didn't have high ambitions for its food scene, but there were definitely a few treasures.

Fried chicken, mac n cheese, collard greens, yams, brisket, cornbread...

Polla a la brasa not as good as Norky's but how can you really compare; Ben's chili half smoke

Hot chocolate from Chinatown Coffee Company was really decadent with the perfectly steamed milk! Georgetown cupcake actually isn't bad... very moist cake

Ginormous oyster po boy from Acadiana, cute Baked+Wired signage
