"What is mid-Atlantic cuisine? James Beard Award-winning chef Jeremiah Langhorne will show you. His fiercely popular, Michelin-starred restaurant focuses on carefully sourced, fare cooked over a wood-fired hearth. If dinner reservations prove elusive, try to land a seat at its first-come, first-serve bar. Or visit the almost-speakeasy-like oyster bar Dabney Cellar under 9th Street NW. If all else fails, his sister restaurant Petite Cerise is a chic French bistro open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner (on the east side of the Convention Center). Go for: A sit-down dinner (with advance preparation), drinks, or try sister restaurants Dabney Cellar and Petite Cerise for possible walk-in service. Distance from CC: 0.2 miles" - Tim Ebner
