For Those Who Like Lettuce

Mixt Greens opens its first location in DC today on 19th Street NW with three other locations already scheduled for Spring.

Stop by to examine the edible living wall of seasonal herbs and vegetables, a first in Washington, that suggests a pick-your-own-produce approach to eating out.

And while you’re there, we suggest you try The Porky – spiced rubbed pork tenderloin, roast butternut squash, smoked bacon, sliced apple and pistachios, dressed with champagne vinaigrette.
