Little Sesame Review

If you are a hummus-lover, this review is especially for you, because DC’s Little Sesame elevates the middle eastern spread from a grocery-aisle staple to the star of the show.  Located in the bustling Golden Triangle neighborhood (in the former home of Veloce, may it rest in peace), Little Sesame brings a decidedly different take on the current fast-casual bowl craze. With a fun and inviting space and focus on real, artfully […]

Momo Yakitori Review

After doing quite a bit of travel to New York City recently, I have definitely been looking forward to pay renewed attention to gluten-free eats in my home city of Washington DC this month.  As it happened, the Restaurant Association of Metropolitan Washington’s (RAMW) winter restaurant week, occurring right in the middle of January, was the perfect excuse to seek out new eats in the new year. The beauty of RAMW restaurant […]

La Esquina Taqueria Review

If there’s one genre of food that I simply don’t get enough of here in DC it’s tacos.  When I lived in Baltimore, I was spoiled by having two 100% gluten-free taquerias in the city to satisfy my cravings. Since leaving Charm City, my taco consumption has dramatically decreased, so when 100% gluten-free La Esquina’s midtown taqueria popped up as nearby restaurant when I was looking for a lunch spot […]

Dig Inn Review

Over the past few months, I’ve been lucky enough to find myself in NYC for both work and for fun. On one such trip, I received a tip from an Instagram follower (thank you @shrinkmuch!) to check out Dig Inn, which serves up seasonally-inspired bowls that are made with farm-fresh ingredients that are naturally gluten-free. With this description I’m sure Dig Inn sounds like every other fast-casual, healthy fare, build-a-bowl concept that is popping up […]

Mänchi Review

If there’s one edge New York City’s culinary scene has over Washington DC’s, it’s the abundance of 100% dedicated gluten-free restaurants. While I greatly appreciate non-dedicated restaurants that go over and above to accommodate gluten-free guests, there’s just nothing like the peace of mind that comes from walking into an eatery and being to eat anything on the menu (or almost anything, as I am also dairy-free). On my latest weekend jaunt up to city, I wanted […]
