It's rumored that
Neil K. Shenai haunts Dupont's
Le Pain Quotidien ("PQ" to its "friends"), at 2001 P St. NW, and
Bistrot du Coin ("BDC" to Shenai), at 1738 Connecticut Ave. NW, simply to show off how well he pronounces their names. Guest-blogging at
Pipón here, he makes the case that the food is the bigger factor.
Bistrot du Coin's signature dish, the "steak maison" ($16.50), is the perfect entree for a D.C. diner looking for a reasonably priced and succulent steak. BDC's butterfly-cut filets (above) are accompanied by a creamy béarnaise sauce. The béarnaise's interaction with the crusted peppercorn and rosemary make the steak maison juicy, flavorful and complex in taste and texture. The steak is served with French fries or a side of mesclun salad for the health conscious.
