WLDC Posts Roundup

Between the new job, juggling the blogs, editing photos, helping my friends' band with their social media and trying to maintain some sort of a life, I haven't had much time to write (or sleep for that matter). Can I blame any of the lack of posts on the earthquake in DC (everyone else is blaming something on that earthquake...)? So to whet your appetite for what's to come on Bon Appetit Foodie, here's a quick roundup of what I've been writing on We Love DC lately. I'll be back with a more legit post soon, but in the meantime check out the following pieces.

This round of Capital Chefs links has some awesome recipes from a spicy grilled chicken to tomato jam to mussels and frites. Roll up your sleeves, read about the chefs and then get ready to make their dishes.

• Nick Stefanelli of Bibiana, Part 1 and Part 2
• Jaime Montes de Oca of Zentan, Part 1 and Part 2
• Haidar Karoum of Proof and Estadio, Part 1 and Part 2

In old news:

• Dan Giusti leaves 1789 for Noma of Denmark (after eating at 1789 the other night I was reminded that I will indeed miss Dan's food and snark)
• New Chefs de Cuisine at DC Coast and Michel
• New Chef at Ripple
• Basil Thyme Food Truck Hits the Streets
• Rogue 24 opened (don't even get me started on that place and it's contract hullabaloo...)
• Unfortunate fire at Hook/Tacklebox in Georgetown, which I believe is still closed
