Farewell...for now

It is a very sad day for bacon-lovers everywhere, particularly in our Nation's Capital. Today was the last day of service at David Greggory Restau-Lounge in Washington, DC. The restaurant is being re-opened under a different name with new ownership later this Fall.

Regular readers of this blog know that I've been a big fan of Greggory Hill's "Pork and Pinot Happy Hours" and "Bacon Aphrodisiac Dinners" for a while now. I've also had the pleasure of getting to know Greggory during that time and the restaurant has become a favorite neighborhood haunt of mine. Fortunately I was able to have one last round of tempura bacon at my final lunch there today!

I'm sure whatever Chef Hill does next will be even bigger and better (and will no doubt involve pork!). In the meantime, I wish him the best and hope he enjoys some well deserved time off.
