“Blind Dog, open until 4 p.m. every day, specializes in superlative lunch fare. Its menu was crafted by one of the partners, a line cook at Ardeo + Bardeo in Cleveland Park, and it includes a turkey sandwich spiked with Sriracha aioli (pictured) and a roast beef option slathered with walnut-pesto aioli. Meats for both are house-roasted.”
