Hello Cupcake

1351 Connecticut Avenue Northwest, Washington, DC 20036-1801. If there’s one thing that DC residents love, it’s cupcakes. Ever since the cupcake craze took hold of the city, a bevy of shops have risen practically overnight, sprinkling the city with so many cupcakeries that you’d think the industry would be saturated by now....

Baked and Wired: Brownies and Cookies

1052 Thomas Jefferson Street Northwest, Washington, DC 20007-3813. If you’re in the Georgetown area, and you haven’t heard about Baked and Wired, the little bohemian coffee shop/bakery just off of M Street, you’re missing out. Baked and Wired is probably the coolest, hippest bakery in the area, catering largely to a younger...

Furin’s of Georgetown

2805 M Street Northwest, Washington, DC 20007-3712. If there’s one thing you can find in the Georgetown area of DC, it’s a decent bakery.

Posted by Edmund in Ice Cream & Gelato, Washington, DC

Address: 1633 Connecticut Ave NW., Washington, DC 20009. Price: $4-$6 for 1-3 scoops. Like I’ve said before, DC isn’t really much of an ice cream city, and you’d be very hard pressed to find many artisanal ice cream makers. So whenever I do hear of that rare (and I do mean, very rare) case of an independent, small-time,...

Price: $3.50-$5.50 for 2-4 scoops. Address: 3214 P Street Northwest, Washington, DC 20007-2744. When I was still a young college freshman and had just moved to Georgetown in DC, I really didn’t know much about the culinary scene, so I had to go by a lot of hearsay from the other students. So I remember one day near the end of my...

Pitango Gelato

Posted by Edmund in Ice Cream & Gelato, Washington, DC

Address: 1451 P St NW., Washington, DC 20005. Price: $5-$6.50 for 2-3 scoops. The nation’s capital, as expected, has some of the best food you can get on the East Coast. Unfortunately, that doesn’t apply so much to ice cream. So it’s only rarely that I really hear about a gelato place around that I just have to try. Pitango...
