Brabo Tasting Room

Holy sheep shit on baby Jesus! I had lunch at this place in D.C. today and it rocked. My sister scored major foodie points for her selection of pizza with pesto, roasted butternut squash, bacon, bleu cheese, and arugula. My pizza with grilled zucchini, preserved lemon, chevre, and basil was fresh and sublime. The chocolate torte left me in chocolate nirvana.

Huh. Interesting that they call them "tarts" on the menu. I suppose that sounds fancier somehow.

Did you happen to have the 5 onion soup?

The link says it's in Alexandria?

Some of those pizzas seem a bit busy and unseasonal, and the menu looks pretentiously-laden with 'restaurant speak'. But I'm picky. Aside from those issues, looks like the type of place I might like to patronize. Will keep it in mind.

They could have called them lollipops and I would have eaten them. They were good. To me, that is all that matters.

D.C. or Alexandria, what's the difference? A freeway?
