The First Timer’s Guide To Eating & Drinking In DC - Washington DC - The Infatuation

"When you come to the nation’s capital, it’s worth rubbing elbows with the people who make our government work (or not). The Monocle, which has been serving the city since the ‘60s, lets you eavesdrop on lobbyists and gush over congresspeople while eating some of the best steaks you’ll get in DC. The yellow and green building sits damn near on Capitol grounds, which makes it a great place for lunch or dinner after you’ve taken a tour or checked in with your senators. It’s a fun mix of old and new—there are throwback cash registers sitting next to a tablet playing smooth jazz. And while you don’t need to dress to the nines, skip the sweats if you want to blend in with the Hill crowd." - Omnia Saed, Tristiana Hinton
