#centerville va

so before we gorge ourselves with fowl (this year, peking duck), my family usually go hard on beef the day before. we could not find a good vn seven-course beef restaurant in the dmv area so we went to honest grill in centerville. the owners of this fine korean bbq establishment are proud of the meats they serve and methinks rightfully so. we did not go all the way high-end (no wagyu or dry age) but thought their “standard” meat was tender (with the right amount of chew) and flavorful and juicy.

If you live in the DMV, it might be an interesting visit….

souffle pancake at okaeri cafe, centreville. just delightful! i love how it jiggles - it is so light and airy. the strawberry sauce was so chunky and not too sweet (slightly macerated strawberries). it takes 20 minutes to make (wait is even longer when the place gets packed) but wait totally worth it!
