Die besten französisch-amerikanische Restaurants in Rockcreek

My girlfriends and I did High Tea at Heathman Hotel! It wasn’t in the restaurant but the Libray! Food was excellent a variety of sweet snd savory! We had fun dressing up and all wore Fascinators aka Hats!!!

One of the best dinners of the year. So many memorable dishes. Never had a cheese rosette before. But the way the cheese was cut made it so memorable. And the cheese itself was fantastic. At first I just thought, "Good cheese." But then these layers of flavor kept coming in with complexity after complexity. We had a bottle of orange Viognier made by the owner. It complemented everything, and everything differently. Each different dish brought out a different side of the wine. The soup was, well, I've never had a french onion soup like it. The crispy cheese basket and bread pudding croutons... I mean bread pudding croutons? Who does that? Oh L'Orange dose. So much flavor. And it was vegetarian! Only found out after. Never would have thought so. So much depth of flavor. So many places have a fried cauliflower appetizer now, but they poach and grill theirs to again, layer the flavor. Best duck I've ever had. Who knew it's better cooked confit, then boned and reassembled into a mini duck loaf crisped all over in duck fat. And that sturgeon. Holy hell, that's one of the best fish dishes ever. And the most expensive thing on the menu is $30. In 2024, for food of that quality, such good value for money. Even the cake was extra special. Even at fancy places, it might have some whipped cream, maybe a little sauce. Their orange cake is bruleed and then has these little bright orange globules of flavor dotted around it. Can't remember if they were more acidic, sweet, or both. But just so, so good. Would most definitely return. There are so many surprises on the menu. The way the cheese is presented, the cauliflower preparation, the fish that's so much more, the cake with unexpected bits and bobs. I'm excited to order differently the next time, because, well, so many more surpises! The main server who helped us was a pure delight. Just one of the most charming people you'll ever meet.

What an amazing meal we had at Canard! Ouf du mayonaise Roasted pear salad Duck on sliced baguette Foie Gras Dumplings (especially wonderful and decadent). Chanterelle soup. Desserts were great as was our wines from Burgandy. Service was top notch! Strongly recommend!!!

My brother was visiting from out of town (a renowned foodie) and we had the best meal! He was truly astonished. The service was impeccable too and the dishes were delicious and completely original!
