Wonderful friends of mine leave for Benin (in Africa!) tomorrow, to start an exciting adventure with careers in the Foreign Service. They just married in October, and I'm thrilled for stories about their new life abroad!
For their last night in DC, we are heading to the
Old Ebbitt for oysters and well wishes. It got me thinking - where would I go for my last DC meal?

I'd probably start with
The Tombs in Georgetown, where I spent so many nights in college drinking pitchers of beer by the fireplace.

Following it up with a drink at
Off the Record, where so many work victories (and losses) were toasted with classic cocktails.

Then, my night would end in my neighborhood, Capitol Hill, with beers and jukebox tunes at the Capitol Lounge and the
Tune Inn.
Where would you head for your last meal in your town?
