"Mélange, a two-year-old venue in Mt. Vernon Triangle, is known for its inventive mashups of East African and American cuisine. Led by Elias Taddesse, the venue offers doro wat fried chicken sandwiches and brown butter aioli cheeseburgers. It started as a pop-up at Shaw’s Wet Dog Tavern in early 2017 and has gained a reputation for blending heritage with modern culinary techniques." - Tierney Plumb
