Georgetown may be D.C.’s ultimate little-treat neighborhood.
Why it matters: The nabe’s snacking scene rivals its buzzy newrestaurants. You can graze your way through stroopwafels and hand rolls, babka and breakfast burritos — plus caviar happy hour if your little treat has a big budget.
Driving the news:Dutch Darlings opens today at 10am, specializing in fresh, gooey stroopwafels.
- The father-daughter business, led by Hans and Maaike Ravesteijn, got its start at the Del Ray farmers market before moving into its first home.
- The tiny shop makes every stroopwafel by hand each morning, from the dough to the caramel-y syrup.
- The menu includes classic, half-chocolate and rotating specialty stroopwafels ($6+), plus coffee sweetened with housemade stroopwafel syrup.
Pro tip: Go early. Dutch Darlings expects to sell out, though Dutch sweets like licorice will stay stocked…
