Food and drink in the City of "Points" (Washington, D.C.)

A weekend trip to Washington, D.C. was a great success in terms of friend-time, food-time, and drink-time.

Our culinary adventure began with pupusas at a Salvadoran restaurant. They were a somewhat inexplicable cross between a quesadillas/corn tortillas/pork tacos. We tried cheese pupusas and pork pupusas; all were pretty good and came with a side of slaw.

Our next adventure was an unplanned visiting of bars "on the way" to the places we were walking. The weather was rather miserable so avoiding the outdoors was key. Some of the highlights included a delicious trippel, a stop at a local brewery/restaurant, and some stops in Chinatown.

Dinner included delicious chicken pesto pizza, a pizza with Spanish ham and oven-dried tomatoes, and red wine at a chic/multi-level restaurant in Chinatown. With an amazing fruit beer on the way.
