| Chicken tikka, garlic naan & veggie curry |
Christina and I cooked up a plan to sample the amazing international flavors DC has to offer. We started with Indian at
The White Tiger on the Hill. It was a beautiful Monday evening so we sat out in their courtyard. The meal was really great (see photo!) and they have a lot to choose from. If you like spicy food you will not be let down. I'm a bit of a wuss so I'm partial to the garlic naan and also really enjoyed their masala chai (tea) which has lots of cardamom. Our only complaint was the extremely slow to sometimes non-existent service, so if you decide to give them a try be sure you're not in a hurry. The menu was just a little on the pricey side but we both had another meal in leftovers - fellows know how to stretch a buck!
This week a group of us hit up
Ethiopic on H St. for an Ethiopian dinner. If you haven't tried Ethiopian before you should! It's a very 'hands-on' meal served on large shared platters and eaten by scooping up with a flatbread called injera. Not everyone was a fan of injera, which has a yeasty almost sourdough flavor, but everyone agreed the vegetable sampler and chicken/beef platter were delicious. There were spicy and non-spicy options to suit everyone's palate (the dark brown ones are spicy!). Ethiopic also has a variety of Ethiopian beers and a honey wine which complement the meal really well.
What should we try next??
