Earlier this week, Metrocurean got a little preview of 1905's new brunch menu, which debuts this Sunday from 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m.

The Ninth Street restaurant hosted a gathering of food writers and bloggers for tastes of Creole benedict with crawfish hollandaise over fried rice cakes and slices of egg and potato Spanish tortilla, drizzled with a zesty garlic parsley aioli. Also on the brunch menu: smoked trout hash, brioche french toast, shrimp and grits, and huevos rancheros.

Both the brunch dishes we tasted were really good. The tortilla with that sauce was really nice. And the fried rice cake is perfect hangover food - dense and starchy and fried.

I also like a dinner taste we had - shrimp over coconut rice.

Add the hassle of framing something and voila, a growing pile of unframed prints and photos gathers dust on a shelf. So I much appreciated a recent gentle nudge from friends at  Framebridge , a DC-based company that's making it easier and less expensive to get those pretty-if-neglected pieces framed and on display. We hung out at my place, whipped up some Green Hat gin and tonics, and I shared tips for stocking and styling your bar at home. (Any old table will do!) And yes, I actually put a nail in the wall and hung a print. Head this way for my full interview with Framebridge . Cheers! all photos by  Laura Metzler Photography  for Framebridge

ENTERTAIN } For The Love Of Salt

Image
I'm bidding a reluctant adieu to summer on this first day of fall and looking back with fond memories on one of the season's highlights — our Summer Salt Fest at the Gordy's Pickle Jar headquarters. Ever since opening Salt & Sundry three years ago, I've been dreaming of a down-home party that celebrates all things salty. With the perfect partners in crime, Sarah and Sheila of Gordy's, and my phenomenal team at Salt & Sundry, we hosted a gathering of good friends and toasted our shared love of salt. The feast included fried chicken, boiled peanuts ( made by my husband !), Rappahannock' s Olde Salt oysters, deviled eggs topped with Gordy's Sweet Pepper Relish, and probably the best fried pickles I've ever eaten (yes, I've eaten a lot) ... Gordy's Sweet Chips and Cajun Okra dipped in roasted garlic aioli. There was crisp Virginia rosé from Early Mountain Vineyards , local brews from 3 Stars and DC Brau , and a watermelon cooler tha...
