"Alongside its po’boys, fried chicken, red velvet cake, and collard greens, the restaurant built into the National Museum of African American History & Culture features its own version of the half-smoke. The only downside? The only way to experience the distinctly D.C. meal involves securing a ticket to the insanely busy museum." - Eater Staff
