Blog Round-Up: 8/18

One day late, but with all the blog-round-up-y goodness you’ve come to expect. I’ve tied in the recipes I liked this week as well; yes, I am too lazy to create two posts of other people’s content.

• Restaurant Week, Restaurant Week, Restaurant Week, etc etc etc. [Best Bites, et al.]
• Blogger metrocurean gets the scoop on two new restaurants in town: Beer-and-American Suisine focused Birch and Barley/ChurchKey in Logan Circle and farm-to-table Founding Farmers. [metrocurean]
• Why are there no prix fixe brunches in DC, asks t/e friend Brunch DC. Oh, go back to New York already. [Brunch DC at DC Fud]
• Organic to Go opens with requisite fanfare, block long lunchtime lines on F St. and in McPherson Square. [Penn Quarter Living]

Recipes I liked this week:

• Homemade Bulgogi [WhereInDC]
• Corn, Pepper and Feta Salad (with produce from the Adam’s Morgan Farmer’s Market!) [the arugula files]
• Curried Tofu Salad with Blueberry Tomato Dressing [Salty Girl Cooks] [As a vegetarian (expect a post on that this week), I must say that SGC is an invaluable source of interesting veggie-friendly recipies. -Ed]
• Raspeberry Sorbet [Houndstooth Gourmet]
• Blackberry Shortcake with Lavender Cream [Food Rockz]
