Nationals Park Welcomes More Female Chefs to Grace’s Kitchen - Eater DC
"The Nationals Park food stand that recently replaced one of scandal-plagued restaurateur Mike Isabella’s dining ventures is now expanding to include offerings from more female chefs, hospitality professionals, and restaurateurs. Starting on Tuesday, May 15, the new concession stand — named in honor of Calvin Coolidge’s wife, who was a big baseball fan — will start serving meatball sandwiches from Pizzeria Paradiso’s Ruth Gresser, as well as a grain bowl with quinoa and cauliflower rice from Ris Lacoste of Ris. And Gina Chersevani from Buffalo & Bergen will serve an iconic drink found at her Union Market stand: the Lox’d & Load’d, a lox mini-everything bagel atop a bloody mary made with vodka from Republic Restoratives. They join existing fare from Grace’s Kitchen inaugural chefs: Top Chef alum Carla Hall and Hank’s Oyster Bar founder Jamie Leeds, who added Nashville hot chicken sandwiches and mac and cheese and shrimp po’boys, respectively, to the menu last month." - Tierney Plumb
