Best Dishes D.C. Editors Ate This Week: October 9 | Eater DC

"The wagyu omakase at Love, Makoto’s Japanese barbecue spot makes for a fantastic date night. Grilling your own cuts of spicy miso hanger steak, short ribs, and wagyu is incredibly fun and huddling over a fiery grill in the dark dining room feels special. This deeply savory stew ($14) with kimchi and wagyu caught my eye on a recent visit, when crisp fall weather was just starting to set in. Full of fermented, spicy flavors, soft tofu, and cubes of rich wagyu beef, this stew was incredibly comforting and I could have easily just had the whole bowl for dinner, even with colorful pickled vegetables and freshly grilled meat on the table. I’m happy to say it also made for great leftovers." - Tierney Plumb
