The Kitchen at Red Palace is open

sideshow, a photo by AWard Tour on Flickr.

For the longest time I've heard about plans to roll out gourmet burgers at Red Palace (or the pre-merger Red and the Black). It's finally happened, and menu is no disappointment. You can get the wings and fries you'd expect from a bar menu, but you can also swap out your fries for a side salad. They have a vegan burger option, and the Burporken is sure to please the most devoted carnivore. The Burporken is a beef burger, topped with pulled pork, topped with grilled chicken. It sounds vaguely sacrilegious, but I suspect it's delicious.

Kitchen hours are 5pm-11pm weeknights, and 5pm-1am on weekends.
1210 H Street
