Dining a la Francaise at Cafe du Parc
Food Event |
 |  |
At last, Paris comes to Washington with our own traditional French bistro. Executive chef Christophe Marque and a hand-picked brigade splendidly express the vision of the supervising chef Antoine Westermannn, who earned three Michelin stars at Le Buerehiesel in Strasbourg. Tonight's menu, created especially for the Smithsonian, showcases the rustic dishes of southwest France. Sommelier Caterina Abbruzzetti adds the finishing touch to a well-planned meal by perfectly pairing wine with food.
$150, general; $115, members; call 202-633-3030
