 Your foodie power weekend begins with a power breakfast. Look around for famous faces around the dining room at the stunning Four Seasons or storied Mayflower Hotel.
 Whet your appetite for local flavors with a food-focused
walking tour. Explore Little Ethiopia or Georgetown with DC Metro Food Tours or take Washington Walks’ “Moveable
Feast” tour to other corners of the city. Stop in for a sweet treat at Georgetown Cupcake (now featured in a reality
show on TLC).
 DC dazzles with award-winning eateries, from CityZen to Citronelle. Snag a sought-after table, then walk it off with a
moonlight stroll around the monuments. |

Any recipe for a DC foodie weekend calls for a visit to Capitol Hill’s Eastern Market, where melt-inyour-mouth blueberry buckwheat pancakes await. On weekends, you’ll also find locally-crafted art, jewelry, soaps and more sprinkled among the fresh fruit and
veggies.
Next stop: the National Museum of American History. Pay homage to a culinary legend, Julia Child, whose kitchen is on permanent display. Ready for another snack? Sample the house-made gelato at the National Gallery of Art or feast on fare from cultures throughout the continent at the National Museum of the American Indian.
Brush up on your cooking skills with a class at Culinaerie or Zola Wine Kitchen, or plot your culinary course through the eclectic eateries of Adams Morgan. |

Join the locals and take a Sunday morning turn through the Dupont Circle FRESHFARM Market. Sample what’s fresh and catch a chef demo. From there, it’s on to brunch at
neighborhood favorite like the Tabard Inn or Teaism.
Shop for fun kitchen accessories at 14th Street’s Go Mama Go and Home Rule, and pick up a unique vintage at Cork Market. Beer lovers won’t want to miss the dizzying menu and
crafty pairings at Birch & Barley (which boasts its own beer sommelier).
Keep it casual with a trip to U Street. Grab a chili half-smoke at Ben’s or dive into southern-inspired comfort food at Eatonville. Linger over a nightcap at Marvin. |
