The past two weekends Katherine and I have managed to break our of our suburban rut, and make it in to the District for a late dinner. Last Friday Katherine and I went in to Adams Morgan to try Amsterdam Falafel. If you are going with a friend, you don’t need two large fries! Both the falafel and the fries were delicious, and this is one of the few truly cheap eats in Adams Morgan. Afterwards I NEEDED some of the nutella crepes and on tap Belgian beer from Chez Antoine. After thirty minutes of searching, we concluded that it was now the late Chez Antoine.

Last night we headed out to Georgetown to Cafe Bonaparte to satiate my craving for crepes. Used to the palty portions at the recently departed Chez Antione I debated ordering two of the savory crepes. Luckily I settled for an order of the Bonaparte Fries as an appetizer instead. The portions here are huge, the ten dollar crepes are entree sized, and almost spoiled my plans for multiple crepes for desert. Somehow Katherine and I managed to force an order of the bannana and nutella crepes, and the crepes suzette into our already distended bellies. Next time I go, I will have to remember to pass up the crispy on the outside soft in the center “European style” fries to save room for dessert.

The only disappointments were the over priced cocktails that we ordered while waiting for a table. The signature drinks were made entirely from low quality bols liquor and had an off taste; and the refusal of the host to transfer our bar tab to the table.
