Had a great time at a new-ish restaurant on Capital Hill called Spinasse, for dinner last night. It was packed on a Monday, which is a good sign. Terrific food (I had the tagliatelle with pork shoulder poached in milk, Dean had the rabbit meatballs with turnip-horse radish puree), but it was very noisy! We could hardly hear each other speak. Still I think we would go back.
