Today’s snack: Some very tasty toast at Dinette.
Even if the words “chicken liver mousse” aren’t near and dear to your heart, try the chicken liver mousse toast at Dinette on Capitol Hill. it’s creamy and crunchy, savory yet light.
Toasts—grilled bread topped with delicious things—are a house specialty at this sweet Capitol Hill cafe. There are seven different kinds on the dinner menu, ranging in price from $5 to $7. A happy hour menu (available from 5 to 6:30pm) must-try: the egg salad and marinated anchovy crostini. Extraordinary, and only $6. (The chicken liver toast also appears on the HH menu, it’s also $6, $7 at dinnertime).
