Spike Gjerde’s A Rake’s Progress Has Permanently Closed in the Line Hotel - Eater DC
"A Rake’s Progress, the high-priced, local-sourcing Mid-Atlantic restaurant that brought James Beard Award-winning chef Spike Gjerde to D.C., has permanently closed after two and a half years of business. The restaurant was known for its fanaticism for local sourcing with cured hams from Virginia’s Tidewater region and seafood platters showcasing Baltimore Canyon lobster. Executive chef Opie Crooks developed dishes at the wood-burning hearth used to roast whole chickens." - Gabe Hiatt
