Seoul Spice is like a Korean-style Chipotle--but better! We recommend either a bibimbap bowl, a "korrito" (it's like a Korean burrito, wrapped in seaweed), or tacos. Whatever you get, add the marinated egg.

Sightseeing
One of our favorite buildings for the beauty of it. Rest for a minute on the majestic steps with a view of the newly polished Capitol Building in front of you. It's a great place to take a little breather.

For obvious reason, a walk down the National Mall can't be missed. Stop at a Smithsonian Museum, or catch the sun set in front of the Washington Monument. It is also a great place to run.

There are three buildings, but the one to see is the Jefferson. There are free tours daily. While you are in the area, get your Library of Congress reader library card at the Madison building around the corner!

Essentials
There are other nearby grocery stores (Safeway is just a handful of blocks away), but MOM's is where you want to go to have a shopping experience that puts you in a good mood afterward. Full of healthy/delicious/local foods and drinks, MOM's is one of my favorite places to find snacks or groceries.
