For James' birthday, we went to Brasserie Beck in Washington, DC, for food, drinks, and good times. And we got more than we thought possible. Everyone was running late to dinner and they wouldn't seat us until the majority of our party arrived. When our numbers reached six we asked if we could be seated, and away we went. And ended up at the best table in the joint.
Brasserie Beck has an exhibition kitchen, meaning you can see your food being made. Watch the Executive Chef analyze each and every dish before the servers whisk them away. And simply have a live show while you eat. If you are in the right spot. And we were. Directly across from the kitchen's opening is the Chef’s Table. Normally it is reserved for the Chef's Menu experience. I suppose they had no takers for the Chef's Menu as we were seated there and were in awe. I am sure that large parties get sat there all the time, but for us it was a true delight!
The food was absolutely amazing. Hands down one of the best meals James ever had. One of our friend's cleaned his plate. Literally, took a piece of bread and cleaned the remaining sauce off his plate. Our server was outstanding. Simply describe the type of beer or wine you liked or were interested in and he had the perfect selection. One of the beers the men were drinking even had a presentation that was really cool and made our minds wander into the gutter a little bit. And for dessert they decorated James plate (see above)! Check out the album for all the photos.
It was a fabulous time. Thank you to everyone who came out and celebrated with us. It was truly what James' wanted for his birthday.
