Really amazing and authentic Thai food in a beautiful setting. You'll typically need a reservation, and they have a prefix menu, which changes everyday. You can request vegetarian and BYOB. We have a lot of good Thai food in DC, but locals get excited most about this place.

It can be hard to get a cupcake in DC without waiting in a very long line (thanks to a certain TV show). But some of the best cupcakes in town can be found at this vegan bakery and cafe, and there's never a wait.

Meridian Hill Park (also known as Malcolm X Park among locals) is a pretty, urban park - great for a picnic or a stroll. On Sunday afternoons in the spring and summer, be sure to check out the drum circle, a local must-see where you'll hear some talented local musicians and catch some of the best people watching in the city.
