We’re flying into National Fri, 05-Jun-2015 – have a dinner engagement that evening. Staying at the Palomar 2121 P St NW – not too far from you, I think. Please Email your address. Amrita typically shops for fish/meats here at Costco where she knows where to find what she wants. I see the closest one is at 1200 South Fern Street, Arlington, VA 22202 Maybe you have a preferred place closer to home that you could suggest? Looking forward to seeing everybody on Sat, 06-Jun-2015 evening. Best, always.
