Food Scene

They have a fresh herb garden and the staff are so friendly! And I always run into a familiar face or two there -- it's like being in a small town in a big city vibe.

Because they have everything! It's a fun local market where they have everything from acai bowls to cute handmade house goods. This is my dream! I love their wide variety of foods from Ethiopian to Korean Tacos and everything inbetween. Plus it's local! And it's always happening on the weekends -- it's nice to see DC be normal instead of just rushing around in suits :)

They have the best food hands down in the city. I love their black bean bento box. It's so filling and delicious! And it's healthy :)

Parks & Nature

They have the most stunning flowers and plants. I used to live in Madagascar so it makes me feel like I'm back at home for a bit. I can easily forget I'm in the city and transplant myself to a place of living amongst the trees again.
