Destino
A fun place in Washington’s refurbished market space “La Cosecha”, which has been refashioned into a sort of upscale food court or, rather, a set of small restaurants that share a big room (and, I presume, some back-of-the-house facilities for greater efficiency). A very small but well-considered menu with some of the best Mexico City plates I’ve seen. Duck breast with avocado cream and heirloom frijoles blancos. Braised short ribs with leeks. Good cocktails, too.
The place is near Gaulladet, and several tables near us were engaged in energetic ASL discussions. So local color, too.
