Chery Picks: Where to eat during the National Cherry Blossom Festival

Filed under:

national cherry blossom festivalIt's official - the National Cherry Blossom Festival kicks off today. If you're visiting, you probably have one question on your mind (well, beyond where to sleep and what to do, which we've already covered) ... what do I EAT?

We've made that simple - check out our favorite of the official "Cherry Picks." Consider this a guide to our favorite Washington DC restaurants offering special cherry-themed meals during the Festival or early spring. Psst - as an extra bonus, if you use a Capital One Bank debit card or Capital One credit card at Cherry Picks restaurants, you'll receive a free coffee or dessert (purchase of entrée required).

Carmine's, Chinatown/Penn Quarter
Information & Reservations
We love this "family-style" Italian eatery, which offers over-sized portions (each dish is sharable for 4-6 people). Enjoy the featured dessert and cocktail below, but don't miss out on favorite dishes like the eggplant parm or special Easter roasted lamb.

  • Sicilian Triple Cherry Cassata ($12.50); Frozen Cherries Jubilee (Cruzan Rum, Luxardo Maraschino Liqueur, port, lemon juice, brandied cherries) ($10 and specially priced at Happy Hour)

Cuba Libre, Chinatown/Penn Quarter
Information & Reservations
It's a true taste of Cuba in the heart of DC. We're a big fan of the small plates and cocktails at this authentic Cuban restaurant. Don't miss a chance to sample the cerviches - they're our favorite!

  • Barbacoa de Pato con Cerezas (Tamarind Barbecued Duck with Bing cherry chimichurri) ($25); Cherry Tini (Pyrat XO Rum, Combier, lemon grass-infused guarapo, bitters, Bing cherries) ($9) and Coconut Cherry Frozen (Three Olives Cherry Vodka, lemon grass-infused guarapo, coconut puree, maraschino cherry juice, ice) ($9)

James

My Sister adds a second...


28 Days Old (4 Weeks!)


Tiny Little Finger In Blue Sweater
It's amazing how much babies change in the first few weeks. James is already up to 10 pounds and has developed a very large bald spot on the front of his head. He still mostly sleeps, but there are brief periods of awake where he is looking around a little.


I find it difficult to image splitting time between two children, but I'm sure you figure out a way to make it work. We went out for a nice stroll around the neighborhood - the Williams household now has a double stroller (bassonet + upright) as well as an agressive single stoller. All three kids had a good time on their walk.

And a bit of video. James and Marcus are almost two years apart. Can you spot the differences?


Thanks again for the visit!

15 Days Old - Our First Visit with James

We wanted to come over sooner, but our daughter was sick and it's not very nice to bring a sick kid over to another house where there is a new Baby. James Philip Vincent Williams was born on Sunday Feb. 13th. Marcus couldn't be happier!

Coolest Big BrotherLittle Smile Marcus

Marcus was running around and kind of scared us with how much further we need to go with child proofing our own home. James on the other hand was a surprise - mostly asleep and so light! It's amazing how light a newborn baby is compared to 10 month old.

James Little Smile 1James Little Smile 2James Little Smile 3

A little bit of sunlight and James woke up for a little bit of a visit. He's still in the mostly sleep stage so there wasn't a lot of awake and interacting.

James Super SeriousJames Yawning

Time to update the family portraits! Mom is doing really well after having the baby and Marcus is reacting well to a younger sibling.

Diana And JamesJames And Marcus
I was really impressed with how well Jeff and Diana could conceal there exhaustion. Just the idea of a second baby makes me want to take a nap.

The Williams Family

Thanks for the visit! Welcome to the family James!
