"Old Town’s longstanding brasserie hosts a “Beaujolais & Beyond” dinner featuring five courses and five wines for $99. The meal highlights the complexity of the celebrated Gamay grape, with gougères and duck breast set to pours of Pétillant Naturel and Nicolas Chemarin’s “Corcelette” Morgon 2018. Dinner guests can BYO bottle of Beaujolais Nouveau — or take one home as a memento for $15. Book a seat online." - Vinciane Ngomsi
"Head to this Old Town brasserie for a $55 prix-fixe spread served from noon to 8 p.m. It features three courses of French classics like onion soup, salade nicoise, duck breast, steak frites, steamed mussels, and plenty of charcuterie, cheese, and desserts." - Vinciane Ngomsi
"On Thanksgiving Day, from noon to 6 p.m., Old Town’s resident French restaurant is rolling out a three-course feast ($89) featuring Parisian takes on the American fare. Reserve a seat online." - Vinciane Ngomsi
"The Alexandria mainstay from chefs Christophe and Michelle Poteaux relies on seasonal and local ingredients. The menu is subject to change, but current can’t-miss selections on the dinner menu include Atlantic sea scallops with a lemon and pea risotto, and duck breast slathered in a Grand Marnier sauce. Save room for dessert, which includes profiteroles, chocolate pot du creme, ice creams, and sorbets." - Vinciane Ngomsi
