Washington Post food critic Tom Sietsema’s seasonal dining guides are respected lists of what you should check out (or avoid.) This spring’s guide of 20 restaurants includes Domku, the Scandinavian/Eastern European spot at 8th and Upshur, and Sietsema gives it a glowing review. (Note that the star scale is more like traditional restaurant reviews than Yelp with 1 being terrible — so Domku’s 2 stars means good, not bad.)
Sietsema notes the new meat-free Tuesdays with vegetarian Swedish meatballs (mushroom, lentils and parmesan), Czech potato pancakes, and the infused aquavit, an alcohol similar to vodka infused with herbs or fruit. I’m a big fan of the dill aquavit they have.
Nice to see that a local, tasty spot is on the list. If you haven’t been, check it out.
