Right now is Maryland blue crab season, so we ventured to the Maine Avenue Fish Market. Here they sell tons of seafood that you can purchase raw or that they'll cook for you on the spot.
For dinner one night, we went to a well-known Neopolitan-style pizza place called 2AMYS. There are some really interesting and gourmet things on the menu. Yet over half of the tables had highchairs and strollers at them. The volume in that main dining room was unbearable! Not sure why parents would bring their 3 year olds to a place like this. Luckily, we found a few seats at the "big kids" bar and ordered a few appetizers and drinks while we waited for a table upstairs and away from the kiddie chaos.

Pizza with green tomatoes, ground sausage, grana cheese, and topped with a fried egg
Margherita DOC with tomato, mozzarella di bufala, and basil
The wedding was so nice - Mazel tov to my wonderful cousins GS and PB!! It was held on a beauty morning in a gorgeous Victorian mansion. The food was fantastic...Nutella stuffed french toast, crab cakes, salafs, fritatta, the works! I take photos of food pretty often, but Miss Menu draws the line on taking food pictures at formal occasions. So you'll just have to take my word for it!
