The chef's table in the kitchen was more intense and intimate for really
being "near the chef and the art". However, reservations for this must be
made well in advance.

Kinkead's is tough to knock. We had the most excellent Wellfleet oysters
there two weeks ago, followed by two excellent entrees. Excellent service
and atmosphere. We're Going again tomorrow night!

Johnny's Half Shell was very good the two times I went. The old chef at
Obelisk has a new restaurant in Cleveland Park that is supposed to be good
although I have no first hand experience.

Have fun!
Adam
