This past Saturday, my best friends and I decided to knock another restaurant off the list- Red Rabbit. The restaurant, which is located on 28th and J, is fairly new and opened in early 2012. It was St. Patrick's Day weekend, so needless to say, the restaurant (and J street in general) was packed with green everywhere.
Their current menu...so much goodness to choose from!
Butternut squash polenta squares with sauteed wild mushrooms, red onion confit, brie and balsamic gastrique.
Loco Moco: Fried egg, local brown rice, caramelized onions, bacon chorizo burger patty, andouille sausage and mushroom gravy.
The Healer: Hand cut pappardelle pasta, brussel sprouts, bacon, sage pesto and poached egg.
We ended up splitting a dessert - the Sweet & Salty Candy Bar Pie with a pretzel crust, salted caramel, peanut butter cream and valrhona dark chocolate ganache. Who can say no to caramel, peanut butter and chocolate all in one?
It just so happened that we both wore green!
