Dining Out: The Best Thai in DC You Didn’t Know About

I grew up eating Thai food. Every Sunday night I knew I would be hopping in the car with my 8-person family and driving to the hole-in-the-wall Thai place in my hometown. 

Opening: Doyle Bar in Dupont

Dining Out: Hank’s Oyster Bar for Lunch!

Who can resist stopping by Hank’s Oyster Bar for a quick lunch? They have four different locations – Dupont Circle, Capitol Hill, Old Town, and the Wharf. I recently visited the Dupont Circle neighborhood location and loved how they created their new specials and seasonal dishes!

One Lounge Kicks Off Summer with a New Menu

One Lounge has all the essentials for a great night out – good food, strong drinks and plenty of room to chat with your date or dance the night away. The space is divided up into several candle-lit rooms with cozy sitting areas around every corner. The mismatched chairs, oriental rugs and crown molding throughout the lounge make you feel like you’ve stumbled into someone’s house party. (The ultimate house party with lots of attractive people and all the vodka you could ever need.)

Odeon Cafe in Dupont Circle

When you are here, you are family! We took my mom to this restaurant about a year ago when she was in DC visiting and she absolutely loved it. She came in town again last weekend for her birthday and she had a special request for Odeon again. They are wonderful! They really made us feel at home when they dimmed the lights and brought out the birthday cake with all of the waiters singing "Happy Birthday." Dino is our favorite...

Odeon is accommodating for people without reservations. My mom got the Pasta Cleopatra and I got the Manicotti. Both were creamy and delicious!

Happy Birthday Mom!
