Kramerbooks & Afterwords
1517 Conn. Ave., NW
Washington DC United States
This quirky Washington landmark's motto <I>Serving Latte to the Literati Since 1976</I> provides good insight into the atmosphere you can expect. Part bookstore, part cafe, part restaurant, Kramerbooks and Afterwords Cafe is as well known locally for its food as nationally, for tearing up Judge Starr's subpoena for the books Monica Lewinsky bought the President there. Several of the restaurant's offerings include <B>The Best Piece of Bass in Town</B>: fresh pan-blackened Chilean sea bass fillet marinated in a miso-sake vinaigrette over mashed potatoes, <B>Twin Veggie Floutas</B>: two flautas with fresh seasonal vegetables and Monterey Jack cheese, and <B>Fun Guy To Be With Fettuccine</B>: portobello, crimini and field mushrooms pan-roasted and sautéed with shallots & garlic finished with a porcini broth & fresh thyme. The menu changes seasonally. Live music is offered Wednesday through Saturday nights. Lighter fare is available in the cafe.
