"The District Fishwife market and cafe serves inventive seafood dishes like their juicy salmon cheesesteak, and everything is great. But it's the bright, fresh fish bowl that keeps us coming back. It’s packed with leafy greens, perfectly cooked quinoa, red cabbage slaw, and celery, then topped with your choice of salmon or shrimp (get the salmon). The tangy cilantro lime green sauce gives it a citrusy kick that brings the whole dish together. It’s the kind of meal that fills you up, but you somehow feel lighter after eating.
