REVIEW - Kinship

It's been a bit quiet here on the blog front, due to an admitted lack of inspiration (thank to, uh, "current events") as well as an ill-advised attempt at the Whole30 diet just after the New Year (a somewhat successful, if not incredibly painful endeavour). Luckily, I felt that there was probably no better way to get back in the blogging groove than to recap one of the more indulgent meals I've had in recent memory. 

I was having trouble coming up with a good restaurant to go to for Grambo's big 3-0 dinner. It seemed like everything that had opened recently in the DC area was either too stuffy and "fancy", or the polar opposite: crowded, doesn't accept reservations and requires standing in line for hours with a lawn chair and a newspaper (I'm looking at you, Bad Saint, because I miss you but I can't do this anymore). 

Luckily, I remembered Eric Ziebold's relatively new Kinship was still on my back burner list and they fortunately had a table for two available. I'd been to his old restaurant Cityzen in the terribly located Mandarin Oriental here in DC before it closed in 2014, but I hadn't kept track of what Ziebold's next project was. 

Check out the rest of my review of Kinship after the jump.
