It's the french restaurant - I like its outdoors seating. Inside is pretty as well. I usually sit on the stool and order. So I would suggest that you make reservations early (opentable.com).

Milk Bar is awesome - started in NYC and now in DC. They infuse cereal (of your choice) in the milk and then remove the cereal, and, the milk will become sweet from that cereal and is ready for drink. It's like drinking from a bowl of cereal after you are done eating cereal. Just a innovation on how they sell.

Getting Around
Rent a red bike for 24 hours, $7; and you have to bike for 30 minutes and drop it off at another station... and then wait for 5 minutes before you can use it again for another 30 minutes... then do it again within 24 hour frame. Great alternative to cab taxis -- wear a helmet.
