Our last "What's Cooking" segment featured a chef at one of my
favorite Georgetown spots, and an event to help combat hunger right
here in our area.
The chef was Tim Elliott from 'Mie N Yu.' It's right on M Street,
east of Wisconsin Ave. If you haven't been there, check it out! But
this is definitely a place for the trendy/adventurous. Interesting
ambiance, good food, and a creative (but kind of pricey) drink menu.

Now Elliott is one of the ten chefs who will battle it out at this
year's Capital Food Fight. It sounds kind of like the Food Network's
'Iron Chef.' The chefs compete with surprise ingredients, while
guests watch and sample dishes from 40 area restaurants. Tickets are
$125, and benefit DC Central Kitchen. This year, it's November 15th.
I plan to go, with some Fox 5 coworkers! If you're interested, you
can buy tickets, or donate online.
