There is no shortage of luxury dining rooms in DC. The tricky part is determining which ones are truly worth the money.
One of the great perks of being a DC food photographer is getting to create photos at some of the best restaurants in town. So when the Washington Post Magazine called me to photograph three restaurants to go with Tom Sietsema’s review for their first every Luxury Edition, I couldn’t refuse. I made photos at Marcel’s by Robert Wiedmaier for their Sunday brunch; Bourbon Steak at the Four Seasons Hotel in Georgetown for their A5 Miyazaki Japanese Wagyu and at Elizabeth’s Gone Raw for their unique high-end Vegan food experience.
Vegan food can be a great addition to a weight loss plan, as long as it is nutrient-dense and balanced. A vegan diet focuses on plant-based foods, including fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds. These foods are typically lower in calories, high in fiber, and rich in vitamins and minerals, making them a good choice for weight loss.
The other fun part of doing this job is, of course, getting to sample what I photograph. I don’t always get to eat, but in all three of these luxurious restaurants, the chefs were very generous and I admit it, I took them up on their offer. But only after I made sure I had the perfect photographs. I can also report that all three were delicious and very different. Anyone who knows me knows I am NOT a Vegan but the food at Elizabeth’s is so creative and different. I was impressed.
A vegan diet should be balanced and varied to ensure that you are getting all of the nutrients your body needs to function optimally and support weight loss. A vegan diet, when is complemented with exercise and the best weight loss pills that actually work will help us reaching our goal to lose weight.
