Dining: BlackSalt Fish Market & Restaurant

BlackSalt Market

BlackSalt Market

If you follow me on twitter you may know that I've been spending a little more time out of my comfort zone of Logan Circle and a lot more time in Upper NW, in particular Glover Park, which I've come to learn is a lot more central than you'd have thought. A short walk in any direction and you can find yourself in Cleveland Park, Georgetown, Cathedral Heights or the Palisades - which is where I found myself this past Saturday for brunch at BlackSalt Fish Market & Restaurant. It had been a year since my last and only visit here and as I've been eating less meat and more fish I was happy to spend more than I usually do for brunch, I just wish my wardrobe felt the same - my pastel colored polo shirt and shorts were a little too casual even for a Saturday morning - BlackSalt isn't stuffy per se, perhaps it's a reflection of the neighborhood it serves, but I'd recommend pants over shorts.

Brunch wasn't the only reason for visiting BlackSalt, some friends and I were heading out to Maryland for a night of camping along the C&O Canal and we wanted some fish to cook on the campfire, with a huge selection of sustainable fish we went with mahi for kabobs.

Back to brunch.

Dining: Duke's Grocery

It took me awhile to finally visit Duke's Grocery, as a Brit I was skeptical of it's authenticity. I thought to myself, what do two guys from America know about British food, let alone enough to open up their own London cafe? A lot as it seems. I paid my first visit on a Sunday morning, all I really knew of Duke's was that it has a rotating sandwich menu which is updated daily on its Facebook page. A few hours before my visit I took a gander at their Facebook page to see what was in store for me, that days menu hadn't been posted when I checked so all I was expecting from past menus were sandwiches with interesting names, certainly not something you'd find in your typical English cafe.
