Joe’s – Stone crab and more

Washington D.C. – This elegant place is perfect for a light meal after a long flight.

We had three different kind of oysters followed by stone crab with asparagus and brussels sprout (some call them frog eggs….).

The 12volt wine from Mallorca tasted great with it.

Chez Billy Sud – French style dining in D.C.

Washington D.C. – This cute restaurant is located in trendy Georgetown. It is in a little street just a minute away from the main road. The atmosphere is very nice and calm. I could imagine (if single), picking it for a first date….

I had duck, nicely traditionally done with orange sauce.

For dessert we chose the “Paris – Brest”, which was created for the Tour de France. Actually, I don`t know how one can ride a bike after eating this dessert…but it was very tasty.

Pearl Dive – Oyster Palace

Washington D.C. – Previously we booked a table at Le Diplomate where we have been already one year ago. Unfortunately Open Table mixed up something with the dates and it was closed. So we just crossed the street and found this wonderful place. The decor is all about seaside living and has a touch of shabby chic. The restaurant belongs to the www.blackrestaurantgroup.com. We have been to “Black Salt” from the same group last year, which was also very good.

I never had such a fresh and fluffy doughnut topped with a glazing that was melting on our tongue within seconds.

I had poached eggs with salmon on muffin bread, topped with a gorgeous looking and spicy tasting sauce. I long to go again just know that I`m writing about it.
