So we're taking a little break from Barcelona because I have to try and gather photos since my phone decided to die on me and I lost almost all my pictures from our European adventure. Luckily Felix took some photos, so I'm going to compile the ones from his phone and my camera to hopefully piece together our beautiful trip!
Anyhow, this weekend, my friends and I went to celebrate my birthday in DC. We only really ate 3 meals in DC, so we had to make use of our time there! The first place we went to was Union Square Market. It's such a fun place that has ample amounts of different eats (think fancy, trendy food court) to try. It is in the middle of a more "industrial" looking area - we opted to walk from our air bnb (15 min walk), but there was plenty of parking in their lot at 10:35am when we arrived on a Saturday.
So after you grab your food, you find yourselves a cozy lil seat. At 10:45, we were able to find seating for 8 of us without a problem, even in the middle of our meal at like 11:30am, it still seemed pretty fruitful if you were looking for a seat!
We ended up picking up a bunch of things to eat and I have a bunch of favorites. My favorite by far was the $10 Acai bowls from South Blocks. I definitely had to wait the longest when I was there - but it was well worth it. They have delicious Acai Bowls and smoothies - I got the PBJ bowl and it was so refreshing and the perfect treat, I could have just eaten that and been so satisfied!
Felix ordered a delicious sandwich from Neopol. They have fresh fish chillin' around and their salmon BLT was KILLER. It was a huge, flavorful sandwich for only $10. We were definitely fighting for the last bite!
I also picked up a Dosa from DC Dosa. It was pretty good and flavorful, but definitely not something I would get when I wanted to "try a bit of everything" because that thing is HUGE! I got mine stuffed with potato and veggies (another reason why I couldn't finish it lmao). However, it is packed with spiced and deliciousness, but is definitely something you want to share! lol!
Lastly, we picked up some donuts from B Doughnut and YUM! My friend and I (were freaked that we might've all gotten too much food) decided to share a donut, so we got a donut filled with Ube... and it was SO GOOD.. that we went and got 4 more donuts... lmao! They had super delicious and super unique flavors. I only tried the Ube and Guava, but they had the "normal" ones like the chocolate glaze with sprinkles to really unique ones like lox!!
Overall, I wish I had gone more than once because there is just so much you can try that one body can't fit lol! If I ever head back to DC, I would most definitely come back here to try more!
PS. don't forget to go around back and take pictures in front of the heart wall ;P
