This week enjoy dinner at Cafe Atlantico:
"“Phenomenal” mojitos and “mouthwatering” guacamole made tableside kick start a “mini-vacation” on this Penn Quarterite’s “three levels of Caribbean fun”; its Nuevo Latino kitchen “makes cutting-edge food deliciously edible”, while “terrific” pre-theater and weekend Latin dim sum keep it “affordable”; at its six-seat, reservations-only Minibar – a $120-per-person “carnival” of “art and chemistry” – “daring types” test their “bravado” on 30-plus bite-size “creations.”" - Zagat.com
"With a culinary vision provided by chef José Andrés and the kitchen detailed by chef de la casa Katsuya Fukushima, it's no wonder that Café Atlántico continues to attract DC's food- and fun-savvy. This dramatic three-level restaurant, installed in a former power plant, incorporates a downstairs bar known for its colorful and powerful Latin American cocktails. Start with a caipirinha (made with a Brazilian sugar cane liquor), a mojito (a mint- and lime-flavored rum drink) or a pisco sour (immature Peruvian grape brandy and bitters, frosted with a spoonful of beaten egg white). The cuisine features updated versions of Latin American classics, such as scallops with coconut rice, Veracruz-style red snapper, and Brazilian stew with chicken breast and pork-bean mash. For the best in self-indulgence, don't miss the weekend brunch---appropriately dubbed a Latino dim sum---a nonstop eating fest. It includes small portions of such dishes as duck confit with passion fruit oil, and tuna ceviche with coconut and mango-anchovy ravioli salad. Ask about the chef's special menu, for entire tables only. Upstairs, the ultimate in gastronomic indulgences comes at Andrés's Minibar, an eight-seat restaurant with its own staff urged to create whimsical, deconstructed dishes that are as much about science as about gastronomy. They push the envelope with a tasting menu that is inspired by their imaginations and what's really fresh and unique for a total of 30 to 35 dishes at a seating. Don't worry---the portions are bite-size. And its wine list is as unconventional as the menu, a great pairing! But don't tarry: you may face a two-month wait to get a reservation." - Gayot.com |
