WASHINGTON — This year, Washington, D.C., is Bon Appétit magazine’s restaurant city of the year.
The designation comes just after the national food magazine named three D.C. restaurants — Bad Saint, The Dabney and Tail Up Goat — on its list of the 50 finalists for America’s best new restaurants.
One reason D.C. rose to the top is because of its growing number of neighborhood restaurants “sprouting up in areas that you would not have imagined ten years ago — neighborhoods like Shaw, Columbia Heights, Barracks Row, and Petworth,” the magazine says.
A new wave of fresh and innovative chefs — and let’s not forget cocktail masters — also made D.C. stand out.
