Restaurant week has been announced! It will be taking place August 15th-21st this year and there are quite a few restaurants participating. Every year we write about a few recommendations for our favorite restaurants, this year will not be any different. I have always found it pretty hard to choose a place on restaurant week and this year is no different. As restaurant week has grows, so does the amount of participants. The shear amount this year shows just how the Washington D.C. culinary scene is growing.
For this year we decided to give you the Top 10 that we have visited and another top 10 for the ones that we want to visit. If you are interested in checking out our recommendations from 2010 and 2009 feel free to check them out. You can also check out RAMW the Restaurant Association Metropolitan Washington. They are the sponsoring the event and here is there website http://www.restaurantweekmetrodc.org/. If you are a Vegan check out our Vegan’s Guide to DC’s Restaurant Week 2011.
