All in Tasty Bites
Hot dogs are an iconic American food and Swizzler Foods adds a twist (or shall I say swizzle) to them that not only delights the eyes but happily satisfies.
This week, by pure happenstance, I came across this grayish-blue food truck while I was looking for lunch in Franklin Square in Washington, D.C. Once I saw that they had themed hot dogs I knew I wanted to try one.
Spring has arrived in the Nation’s capital and that means happiness all around. People are cheery, there’s music playing in the streets and terraces are open for outside dining. Unlike Europe, there aren't too many options, but the few establishments that do have them, really stand out, like the Park Hyatt's Blue Duck Tavern. And guess what folks, their beautiful sunken patio that includes a blue mosaic fountain (where sometimes you'll see a duck sunning itself) is now open! (cheers all around.)
If you are not yet familiar with CRAVE, then you will want to be. Nestled in Westfield Montgomery, the upscale shopping center in Bethesda, MD, this American Kitchen & Sushi Bar restaurant is known for its fresh ingredients, a topnotch wine selection, creative sushi and innovative cuisine.
The first time I had an artisanal avocado toast was at Slipstream on 14th Street in Washington, DC and immediately fell in love. It was simple yet delicious. Perfectly cut slices of avocado on wheat bread topped with whipped goat cheese (just pure decadence), salt, pepper, sprouts and then topped off with a drizzle of olive oil. A definite palate pleaser.
