A Five-Country Culinary Tour During DC Restaurant Week! 🍴
📍 Tail Up Goat, Washington D.C. This Michelin-starred spot offers a solid Restaurant Week menu—filling enough without needing extra dishes! 🎉 For $65 per person, the menu includes two starters + a main course (no dessert included). The vibe? A fusion of Korean, Italian, American, French, and Chinese flavors! 🌶️🍝🍷🥢🍔 But honestly, while it’s creative, the execution felt average—nothing standout, neither great nor bad. Just… fine. 😅 And be prepared for a leisurely pace: three courses took nearly two hours! ⏳😴 --- 🍽️ SNACKS • Crudité: Cucumber and radish with miso dip—reminiscent of Korean banchan or even Northeastern Chinese scallion-dipping vibes! 🥒✨ • Salt Cod: Fried fish-starch croquettes… pretty basic. 🍽️ MIDS • Nashville Hot Sweetbread: Spicy fried beef sweetbreads with pickles and bread—tasty and similar to Hot Lola’s style, but the portion was tiny! 🤏🌶️ • Tagliatelle: Creamy pasta—decent but forgettable. 🍽️ MAIN • Halibut: Chinese-style grilled fish with celery—tender, crispy skin, and lightly seasoned with a smoky touch! 🐟🔥 • Beef Bourguignon: French-inspired red wine-braised beef over mashed potatoes—soft and rich, but a bit fatty. 🍽️ DESSERT Not included, so we added chocolate cake… and regretted it! 🍫😬 Dense, dry, and underwhelming—especially after so much food! 🥲 --- Verdict: An ambitious mix of cultures, but the flavors didn’t quite shine.
