Brunch is perhaps my favorite meal of the day. And Sunday brunch is hands-down my favorite meal of the week. No matter if we’re brunching out or at home, Sven and I always take weekend brunch as a serious matter 😉
I spent the weekend with Sven again in DC. Every trip I’ve made so far to see him has felt like proper holidays even though they’ve all been short.
On Sunday morning, we walked through the Dupont Circle Farmers Market (which is held every Sunday) before heading to our favorite Washington DC brunch spot, Le Diplomate. The walk to the restaurant is nice and I enjoy strolling by the rows of pretty houses which line Q and R street. There’s something about the slightly unkept patio gardens and shady sidewalks that make these streets so charming.
Anyways, Le Diplomate might be one of DC’s finest brunch options (if you’re into French food). But really. Who isn’t into French food?
We decided to go for one of our tried and true favorites – Duck Sarladaises, along with something entirely new – Salmon Carpaccio. Both were delicious. However, Sven wanted me to tell you all that the Duck Sarladaises we had on this particular Sunday didn’t quite live up to his memory of the Sarladaises we had during our previous visit. I’m only including this details so I can tease him for his pedanticness later 😛
So if you’re ever in Washington DC, be sure to stop by Le Diplomate.
