Garlic & Herb Lamb Chops with Whipped Chive Potatoes & tarragon Haricots Vert

September 22, 2020.Reading time 12 minutes.

Here’s the dish! I love lamb chops, but I’ve only ever enjoyed them while dining out. I’ve never attempted to make them at home until now! Lamb is the other red meat we often forget about. It can often be prepared in a similar fashion as beef (butter-basted in a cast iron skillet is my […]

Happy Mardi Gras! New Orleans is definitely one of my favorite food cities. Every time I visit, I find a new gem that takes me on a culinary journey featuring lots of flavor and culture. I was fortunate to celebrate my 40th birthday at Justine in 2021. The restaurant is the perfect combination of a sophisticated French brasserie and a lively French Quarter mainstay.
Watch my stories (or Weekday Dinner Highlights) to see how I whipped up this simple weekday dinner of Korma Chicken, Jasmine Rice & Green Beans in 30-45 minutes using an Indian simmer sauce from @aldiusa and one of my favorite seasonings @ortonshouseseasonings!
My girlfriends and I finally made our way to dLeña in the Mt. Vernon Triangle neighborhood in D.C. The modern Mexican concept from Chef Richard Sandoval has been getting a lot of buzz as it was featured in last year’s Michelin Guide. It was definitely worth the hype; the food offered bold flavors and multiple textures with each bite. I am definitely looking forward to revisiting them again, especially for brunch.
I don’t know about you, but I need a vacation, or better yet, a baecation! One of my favorite things to do is explore a destination’s culture through their food. From street food to more upscale restaurants, you can learn so much about the history and culture of your destination through its food.
With Valentine’s Day right around the corner, I’m sure you are all in search of great date night spots to celebrate with your significant others or friends! North Italia in Foggy Bottom is a great option for your Valentine or a Galentine’s Day outing. The food, service, and ambiance are all impeccable, so you won’t be disappointed! I recently visited with my girlfriends, and we dined on Crispy Calamari ($17.50), White Truffle Garlic Bread ($15.50), Little Gem Caesar Salad ($15), Strozzapreti ($22), Braised Short Rib Lumache ($23), Chicken Parmesan ($25), Spicy Rigatoni Vodka ($23), Seasonal Butter Cake ($11), Bombolini ($11), and Hazelnut Torta ($11).
The menu from my #DinnerWithFriends in Atlanta was extensive! We dined on Cornish Hens, Candied Yams, Squash Casserole, Macaroni & Cheese, Cabbage, Collard Greens, Pinto Beans, Succotash, Green Beans, and Baked Cod (not pictured).
Being home for the holidays always gives me the recharge I need to start the new year. A dear friend’s mother recently hosted us for a delicious home cooked meal. Together, we celebrated her birthday, the accomplishments of our friend group, as well as set some intentions for the upcoming year. With a burning bowl ceremony, we gathered as a community to literally burn the things we wish to leave in 2022 and not carry into the new year. I am grateful for the community, the fellowship, the accountability, and, of course, the delicious food!
My girlfriends and I endured the parking garage and crowds at Ponce City Market for a post-Christmas meet up. There, we dined at the Italian restaurant, @bellinaalimentari. They offer casual dining and full service options for guests. We ordered at the counter and enjoyed:
Yardbird is one of my favorite restaurants in DC. I often recommend it to folks and go often myself. Here are a few of my favorite menu items they serve, some of which are seasonal.
My favorite weekend activity is definitely #brunch! I finally visited @smokeandmirrorsrooftop in Navy Yard to see what all the hype is about. They have a very limited brunch menu compared to other places, but in all honesty, you don’t go there for the food. You go there for the #views! Smoke & Mirrors is definitely an excellent spot to people watch and take in some amazing views of the Capitol and D.C. I went earlier in the fall, but their all-weather rooftop patio can be enjoyed year-round.
This week, my colleagues and I had our 16th annual White Elephant Gift Exchange & Luncheon at Al Dente in DC. We had a blast reconnecting at what is a busy time of year for us all. And food always tastes better with good fellowship!
Weekends are for brunchin’, and brunch with waterfront views is top tier! Did you know Mi Vida has a family-style brunch for $28 per person?! We dined on Salsa and Guacamole with Chips, Shrimp Ceviche, Oranges with Tajin, Chicken Enchiladas with Black Beans and Rice, French Toast with Flambé Bananas, and Churros! Be sure to check them out at the Wharf for water views or on 14th Street for city views!
