to a party that clearly will be taking its time? Any suggestions? There will be one or two vegans, everybody else is an adventurous eater. It can be a nice, reasonably pricey place, but we can’t afford to rent out the space....

Need a suggestion for dinner for 9 people on Saturday night. 5 people are coming in from out of town and, to be honest, aren’t that adventurous. Any ideas? We’ll go anywhere in Manhattan. Thanks!

Please offer advice for a birthday dinner restaurant that meets these criteria: - Adventurous or interesting food; - Cost between $75-100 per person; - Location in DC or the very close suburbs; - Romantic. Thanks!
