With a multitude of nationalities and ethnicities represented, it isn’t surprising to find that Washington is one of the most diverse American cities, if not the most. This diversity is best represented in none other than the city’s culinary scene.
When you have dining options ranging from Ethiopian to Uruguayan, you have yourself a gastronomic version of the UN (sans the spineless bureaucracy and acrimonious exchanges, of course). As for me, a lifelong advocate of multiculturalism (you can call me a product of my “Chindian” upbringing), such a plethora of cuisines is definitely a check on my scorecard. In fact, I’d go as far as to say that the great city of Washington, DC is my favorite place to eat in Washington, DC.
