Dish, Washington, D.C.

My friend Leo was in the neighborhood tonight and wanted to go eat, so we popped over the Dish in the River Inn on the street behind my block. It's cold out tonight, so we didn't want to have to walk far. We started off with a martini and a cosmopolitan which came in oversized glasses--no need for a second round. I wasn't terribly hungry tonight, so I just ordered a frisee salad and a duck confit off the appetizer side of the menu, and Leo had some potato gnocchi and the wild salmon entree. For dessert, we each had a pistacchio, dried fig, and white chocolate bread pudding, which was tres bon, then we sat and lingered over coffee. I like this friend; we talked a little "business" and he expensed the dinner. I need to find more friends with expense accounts!
