All this week we highlighted rooftop dining we had the best of the best prove their worth in the Great Day Kitchen. See these amazing restaurants (and their recipes!) below.
1. Perry's Restaurant
Named for a U.S. Admiral that helped open Japan to the West in 1854, this Japanese eatery has been an Adams Morgan staple for over three decades. Enjoy a rooftop happy hour 7 days a week, and don't miss the super popular Sunday drag brunch. So far, we've totally fallen in love with the "okonomiyaki", which is like a Japanese pizza. Find the amazing recipe here.
