Looking mainly for good restaurant suggestions. I don't need fru-fru kinds of places. But I like to avoid chain restaurants if possible. Anything uniquely local with a good atmosphere and quality semi-normal food that you might expect a teenager to like is what I am after.
I have a pretty good idea we are going to be hitting up the usual museums and memorials during the day and various forms of arts in the evening at the Kennedy Center and Ford's theater. If you have anything specific to add to that that you think is can't miss - please do.
Staying at the JW roughly a couple blocks from the White House if that helps for suggestions.
Appreciate any ideas.
