So continuing on the theme of slackers catchin' the tail end of "DC restaurant week," Jewelyn and I had perfect timing and snagged the last available table-for-two.
I had the crab hash, which was like a dissected crabcake on top of a roast portobello mushroom cap with a warm salad of greens. They were quite generous with the crabmeat.
Jewelyn and I were both so taken with the entree possibilities that we ended up splitting the twin filet mignons with Sauce Bernaise on mashed potatoes and the signature Harry's Mussels (Prince Edward Island golden) steamed in white wine, garlic, and parsley. Both were amaaazing. The steak and mussels were cooked to perfection and the extra flavors complemented without overpowering the proteins' flavors.
And of course, what would Tulane reunion dinner be without a good bottle of wine and post-dinner drinks? (Lord knows we didn't have room for dessert despite the delicious-looking berry bundt cake and cheesecake they brought, but Tulanians always save room for drinkable desserts.)
