We ate at @kirbyclub last night and are still talking about how good the meal is this morning! Aside from the gorgeous decor, the food and wine selection like a natural style wine called leb-nat (Lebanese pet nat 🤣) was so good. Here’s what you have to get if you go:
-the carrot dip, the creamiest dip with crispy shallots on top 🥕
-any kebab plate, I did the meat lovers so you get a selection of three different kebabs
-anything pickled, like pickled eggplant or their pickle plate
-if you’re a whiskey fan, the Mamoul with black tea, date, and orange oil 🥃

Make a reservation if you want to go or get to the bar early, it was packed! #dmvfoodie #mosaicdistrict #dcrestaurants #mediterraneanfood #instafood

We love a simple, healthy, and flavorful dinner and this Spicy Greek Shrimp with Cauliflower Purée checks all the boxes ✅ here’s how I made it:
- Marinate 1lb shrimp with tomato paste (ours was leftover from a stew a few nights ago), chili flakes, olive oil, oregano, s&p
-Sear shrimp in olive oil until caramelized and remove to a bowl
-Sautée a few sliced shallots, 2 sliced bell peppers, some garlic, and more tomato paste in the pan the shrimp was in
-While the veggies are cooking, steam a head of cauliflower with a clove of garlic. Once soft, blend until smooth with some salt
-Deglaze veggie pan with a splash of ouzo (can skip this if you don’t like it), and then add in 1 cup chicken broth. Reduce, then add shrimp back in with a big squeeze of lemon
- Plate and top with feta and olives. Enjoy!

When the wine tasting notes say “like lying naked on a velvet couch surrounded by chocolate”, you know it’s going to be good 👌🏻 we loved so many dishes at @queensenglishdc- get the duck noodles, mouthwatering hamachi, daikon fritters, and especially the scallion pancake with mapo octopus 🤤 if you’re very into fino sherry like I am right now, the buck shot with the Spanish spirit, ginger, banana, and soda was so refreshing! #dcrestaurants #dcdining #chinesefood #instagood #instafood #foodporn

Today I had the chance to be @jessicaashleyevents plus one for the most epic party thrown by @ridgewellsdc! It was rock n’ roll themed and had the most delicious St.Patrick’s themed food (shepherds pie cannoli anyone??) 🤘🏻The attention to detail was next level and I got to meet awesome people who throw the coolest events, so grateful I got to attend this one!

These @dear_frances boots have lasted me 3 years of walks from dinner to speakeasies, days spent marching around wineries, and miles between meetings. They were an investment and it’s amazing what a little shoe polish was able to do! How many more years do we think I can get out of these babies?? #dearfrances #instagood #sustainablefashion

Today is a special day for food bloggers – the day the clocks give us light at night to photograph our dinners! 💃🏼 To celebrate, I made this incredible Japanese-inspired beef stew from the New York Times. It’s rich with dark soy sauce, sweet with mirin, and bright from lemon juice and the peel that braised together for 4 hours. Will add the link to the recipe on my story! #dinnerideas #instafood #instagood

I will never stop talking about these shelves! Swipe to see the before- a mess of flours (you know how much I love to bake 😅), dog food, random snacks, etc. Per the sage advice of @brian.paquette_, I put those items into a closed (key word) nearby cabinet and displayed our beautiful dishes on the @soilandoak shelves. Thank you @theexpert for creating a platform that allows people to get design advice from the most brilliant people! 😍 #instagood #interiors #design #home #kitchendesign #interiordesign #interiorinspiration

The @soilandoak shelving that solved our crazy bay window (and almost ended my marriage 😅) is up!! It’s so beautiful and I can’t wait to collect items to style it. It holds all of our matching dishes, glasses, and pottery that my mom makes, which now leaves the cabinets free for all of the random flours, dog food, etc. that previously was on it. What do you think?? 😍 #instagood #interiors #design #home #kitchendesign #interiordesign #interiorinspiration #modern #interiorstyling

My favorite gloomy day activity involves making the easiest rosemary focaccia 🥖 I use the @alexandracooks recipe (search easy overnight focaccia) and add rosemary and flaky salt on before baking. I’ve made this for so many people and everyone is so impressed, and only I know how easy it is 💁🏼‍♀️ #focaccia #baking
