Daddy's Little Girls
D.C.’s own Iron Chef, Morou, opened Farrah Olivia in Old Town Alexandria in November. Named after Morou’s daughters, the restaurant offers a menu of modern American, French, and African cuisine. Crisp white tablecloths contrast with shades of khaki and chocolate brown, which decorate the 66-seat dining room and a patio that holds 30. |

All About Eve
Temptation comes in many forms at Restaurant Eve, the boîte that chef Cathal Armstrong (named one of Food & Wine’s 10 best new chefs in the United States in 2006) opened in 2004. The vanilla-hued restaurant has wrought-iron accents and serves up American cuisine. A 34-seat chef’s tasting room is available for private events, but fireside dining in the 61-seat bistro is a cozy option in the winter.
