"We are in dc for an event at the conv center. We just walked the direction that it looked like where the restaurants were. First one we stumbled upon was Baby Elephant. We were surprised how empty it was at 8pm on a Friday night. We sat at the bar. Bartender was attentive but we def had a language barrier if we said much other than questions on the menu. We had the following: Olive plate- enough for 4-5 people and some olives I haven 't tried before, but it 's olives. Cheese plate- for us chain restaurant suburbanites (well my hubs) it was not cheese and crackers but I really enjoyed it! Super crusty bread, 3 1oz pieces of cheese. A smoked Brie and a smoked Gouda plus a sharp cheese. I assume they change these up. And a small pat of Quince paste which was amazing on the bread w the cheese. Turkey stuffing soup- I am a soup guru. This was interesting. It was a dark turkey stock with pieces of turkey that was smoked and almost like sausage, and carrots and then cornbread chunks on top- kinda like the bread in French onion soup. I liked it, but many people might say it is a little too herby- sage and thyme strong. Ribs and slaw- amazing. So tender, not all saucy but flavorful. Slaw was different bc it didn 't have the mayo part of cole slaw, but more Of a vinaigrette. The menu is very eclectic. I would like to go back several times to try all the interesting sounding menu items."
