Jaleo has long been my place to take visiting friends for dining out in D.C., but I may have a new favorite. Posh, created by the founder of BET, serves up delectable food in a lush, Syrah-colored surrounding. I thoroughly enjoyed one of Johnson's former ventures in Vegas (unfortunately no longer extant), and Posh reminds me of it with its live jazz, intimate lighting, and seating as plush as a mattress. Best part? The staff doesn't treat you like a leper if you're dining alone. I was given the run of the place by the hostess, a move which will keep me coming back. That and the food. I had the lamb chop, but the chef sent out a lobster-based vichyssoise that was to die for. Definitely going with the seafood next time. Judith and Eric -- when y'all visit, we're ditching the kids and coming here.
