restaurant recommendations
Amy Park
Many of you have asked us for restaurant recommendations in DC for the AUGS-IUGA conference coming up in July. Here are some recommendations below. Please feel free to forward this email. I'd probably recommend going to 14th St or to Chinatown/Penn Quarter in terms of sheer number of restaurants and bars. This list was compiled by our group - let us know if you have any questions or specific needs.
Can't wait to see you all!
