Where I Go Out
Shrimp toast
$$, Asian, Vietnamese, Noodles,
"Doesn't sound special, but the way they fry it is special. The baguette on the toast never gets soggy or greasy. Then you pair that with a well-seasoned shrimp paste and fresh herbs and crisp lettuce. Hot and cold, crisp and herbal, it's the perfect bite."
Vongole pizza
$$, Outdoor Seating, Pizza, Full Bar, Northwest Washington
"I love the way the cheese and the liquid from the cockles meld with the capers and chili flakes. I order this pizza and two small plates and I'm a happy camper."
Hog Island barbecued oysters
$$$, Seafood, Northwest Washington
"I love the butter and the way the just-cooked oysters interact with the Tabasco and lemon. This is a great neighborhood spot for oysters."
