Adventures with Barb: Dining out Healthfully or at least trying to in DC
By robyn | May 11, 2008
For my clients who do not wish to be vegetarian, I at least try to steer them towards more healthful seafood dishes. And a place Barb and I have found most useful to us on our dining adventures has been Grillfish. Grillfish has of course been the easiest of the restaurants for us to navigate ( we are striving for a balance between making this easy and making it more challenging) for getting a nice plain grilled piece of succulent fish is what Grillfish is all about.
Sure you could go for the fried stuff or seafood in cream sauces, so for those of you that cling to your fat, don’t worry , there is something like that for you here. But a good look around the room led us to believe that many health conscience people dine here for what we saw paraded out of the kitchen were endless plates of freshly grilled fishes and shellfishes, basically unadored served with healthy sides of fresh steamed vegetables.
For the two times we have dined here, Barb and I created our own little meal; the waiters were more than happy to oblige. We just loved the smoky grilled salmon over a bed of mixed mesclun greens with all sorts of vegetables, and of course dressing on the side. This isn’t actually a menu item, but we put it together and the wait staff serve it to us with more than smile.
So if you are looking for a just a good piece of fish that’s not fussed with served by a competent and friendly staff in a very nice warm dining room, Grillfish might be just the ticket.
