Editorial Review

Nouvelle Americana springs up in the shadow of FBI headquarters. Evere-changing, sit-down menu reads like prom date conversation between Ina Garten and Robert Frost. Braised this, crusted that. Cedar-plank walls interspersed with photo prints of living cedar. Shiny stainless steel used to make wall panels and wiry bread baskets. Affordable business lunch with a gourmet twist, e.g. BLT sandwiches with pork belly. Overworked downtowners line up for tender quail.  Basic good food for the well-paid palate.
