Kinkeads – A Delicious DC Institution




If you’ve been to Washington DC in the past fifteen or so years, chances are you have eaten at – or at least heard of Kinkeads. Located close to the White House, State Department and the Mall, here’s where you’ll often find the movers and shakers in DC. We popped in the other night for dinner at the bar. Couldn’t resist the soft shell crabs, and of course, we had to take advantage of the chef’s choice of oysters. Here’s a shot of the fun presentation for a couple of the juicy bivalves, along with a picture of the evening’s closer – a chocolate “bombe” filled with dark chocolate mousse and a topped with a tiny bit of edible gold foil.
