I think one is called the Adams Morgan neighborhood...

And head on up Connecticut Avenue....north of Dupont Circle.

And don't forget just across the river, in Alexandria...Old Town is a
great place!!

Last time I was in the DC area, was back in 2004-5. So I am not as
current as people living closer.. But even when I have lived there,
and when I was there a few years ago for a few months, there was
much, much more to DC than those places you mentioned.

And as I mentioned, it has become a happening food town...some really
good restaurants there.

A good forum for foodies, for the DC area and a bit beyond:

Maybe Pat (Cryambers) will speak up..she is very familiar with the DC
area, as well as our own Blake Murphy.
