"Is the nation's capital a great food city?" asked the Los Angeles Times as it explored D.C. for answers. Among the highlights was a visit to Kramerbooks & Afterwords Café, which elicited this verdict:
Known for: A beautifully curated selection of titles, a tiny bar and a cafe with indoor and outdoor seating.
Highlights: We had stopped at Kramerbooks for a couple of hours on Saturday afternoon, abandoning ourselves to browsing through towers of books, then returned the next morning for breakfast....
Vibe: Kramerbooks was hopping on a Saturday afternoon, but 17 hours later, the mood among patio diners was Sunday-morning appropriate. Patrons used their indoor voices, murmuring about the glories of summer mornings in the District of Columbia before temperatures started to climb.
Conclusion: What's not to like?
