Foodie and the Beast – Nov. 3, 2024

Hosted by David and Nycci Nellis.

On today’s show:

·        The Tabard Inn is the oldest continuously operating inn in Washington D.C. opening its doors in 1922. Old in years but definitely au courant, the Inn is a lively dining destination thanks to Executive Chef Matthew Zafrir, who won Washington City Paper’s 2024 award for best chef in D.C. Joining us today is his beverage director, Dominik Lenikowski, with tastes and talk of the Tabard Inn’s cocktail program;

·        Mitsitam means “let’s eat!” in the Native language of the Delaware and Piscataway peoples. At the Mitsitam Native Foods Café at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of the American Indian, Chef Alex Strong is leading a new team and menu presenting Native foods in a decidedly delicious way;

·        Founded by Emily Friedberg and Jean-Louise Conaway, D.C.’s Each Peach Market came about when the two friends discovered their mutual love of good food and deep curiosity for where it comes and how it is made. They also love to bring people together around the table. Ergo, Each Peach, to help our community discover amazing food and inspire the DIY culinary spirit;                                                                                                                              

·        In Arabic, “Yalla” mean’s “let’s go!” So, let’s go to Lebanese chef Marcel Chehaieb’s Yalla on U Street. It serves up tantalizing Middle Eastern cuisine… and echoes of a great night out in downtown Beirut.
