REVIEW: Nage on Scott Circle, Washington DC

Yes it's located on the ground level of the Marriott Courtyard but don't be fooled.  I've been to Nage a handful of times for work lunches and have never been disappointed.  Contemporary American cuisine I believe is what defines their innovative and often changing menu but yesterday I may have had HANDS DOWN the best gnocchi dish outside Italy. Chickpeas, heirloom tomato, watercress pesto, buffalo mozzarella (please excuse the terrible photo above). The presentation was a bit overwhelming but the the dish itself, FANTASTIC...seriously check this out.   Nage Restaurant, 1600 Rhode Island Avenue, NW Washington, DC

About Me

My photo
Hi there, my name is Giacomo and I enjoy things delicious. Long story short, my parents moved from Italy to NJ where I grew up (and loved it) but found myself in Washington, DC fourteen years ago and haven’t yet found an excuse to leave. Food has always been a huge part of my day and life… from happy times, sad times, holidays, drunken escapades and all the rest in between, I’ve usually spent a good portion of that time putting something in my mouth. I guess I started this blog a little while ago to keep track of what I was cooking and places I’d eat-- simply because my friends were always asking “how do you make this” or “where do you get that” but surprisingly over time I guess real people started reading too. SO, take a look around and let me know what you think. You’ll see that the backbone of lots of my food is Italian but I manage to cover most bases. Thanks for stopping by. BUON APPETITO!
