Rooted Rotisserie

The Keith Lee Effect: D.C. Area Restaurants Sell Out After TikTok Critic’s Visits | Eater DC

"I was blown away by the namesake rotisserie chicken (my highest DMV score so far at 9.2) for its buttery, lemony flavors, and nearly everything else scored very high — truffle fries, curry-toasted fennel wings, pineapple lemonade, Brussels sprouts, and tinned fish — but the duck confit gumbo truly stood out: the greens alone were a 9 and combined with the roux, duck, and potatoes I gave it about a 9.6 because the flavors were incredibly balanced. I told the owners the food was “insane” and warned things might get crazy; co-owner Amanda Burton said reservations spiked and the week filled up quickly." - Emily Venezky
