This week, the Washington Post published a fun feature identifying 40 dishes that it considers to be dishes that all Washingtonians must try. The editors selected from far and wide, all across the metro area. So perhaps Georgetown shouldn’t feel too bad that only two dishes made the cut.
They are the beautiful behemoth you see above–Stachowski’s 4 met grinder–and Moby’s Combo II, from Moby Dick House of Kebab. (Technically the second one isn’t exclusive to Georgetown, but in the description the Post specifically recommends the Georgetown location.)
But were there any other Georgetown dishes left out?
The obvious one is a Georgetown Cupcake. But maybe that was too obvious for the writers (and too touristy). Along those same lines, a cupcake from Baked and Wired would seem to fit the bill. GM would specifically recommend the carrot cake one.
Anything else?
The Georgetown Metropolitan 
Chicken Madness (or Burger Madness, which I prefer) from Wisemiller’s. Bulldog Burger at Tombs. Is Serendipity 3 closed yet? If not, Frozen Hot Chocolate there (also not unique to Georgetown, but within the DC metro area it is). That’s all that comes to mind at the moment.
