Barracks Row is on the rise! Previously a rundown area, this neighborhood in Southeast DC has been cleaned up and is now a vibrant spot with a wide array of restaurants and bars. It’s a fun and tasty spot to eat!

Think hot dogs are just for kids? No way! Hot dogs are awesome. First, they’re delicious! Seriously, why do you think Andy Griffith was always hitting up that hot dog stand in “Matlock”?

Some of the best dates happen outside. Case in point: playing golf! If you’ve got a pro in your midst, don’t be scared to hop on a cart and go for all 18 holes. But even total novices can have fun playing golf — just stick to the putting green and driving range until you perfect your swing.

In addition to its amazing taste, seafood offers great versatility. Stop by a sidewalk stand for a quick and casual bite. Or, to celebrate a special occasion, head to a fancy seafood restaurant and share a lobster with your honey. Either way, you’re sure to have a delicious meal!
