DC has always been 1 of my favorite food cities to visit and I am extremely happy to be back. This wonderful city was actually the very 1st destination of #kulinaryatravels when I officially launched it 4 years ago. How much has passed but one thing remains constant, is the continuous search for amazing food. With that being said, we are about to embark on a fantastic journey within the landscape of food here in DC. First stop is Joia Burger by Chef Patrice of Purple Patch.

I’m so happy to see this place come to life as I still recall her showing me the concept space 4 years ago, when I last visited. The cue was quite long when I arrived and exactly what I expected for a late Sunday brunch. The park across the street had a small fair and some music going on which made the day brighter than usual. I started with the Filipino fruit salad which was exactly how my grandmother used to make it. The smashed burger and loaded fries were exceptional. This meal alone already made the trip out here completely worthwhile.

Finished the meal with an ube soft serve which was the perfect ending to the start of this DC food trip… #kulinaryatravels will be back for more next week…
