I had the pleasure of meeting Lance Mion, food and beverage manager for The St. Regis in Washington DC. I had arranged a wine tasting for an upcoming event, we tasted some fantastic wines and learned about the food, menus and food service offers at the DC location. This is definitely a restaurant were I am planning on going in the near future, their dinner menu looks terrific. Lance is a trained chef with many years in the culinary world and now is at the helm of the food and beverage department at this glorious and stately hotel. During our wine tasting we also tried some of their appetizers from their signature restaurant Decanter; everything was just sensational. The ambiance is beautiful, the food delicious and this Washington DC location is perfect. If you are in the area and looking for a special place to dine, I highly recommend stopping in. Remember too, that The St. Regis is known for their Bloody Mary’s, defiantly worth a try. Below are a few photos I took during our visit.
Wine tasting in their bar! What a great way to spend an afternoon.
