701 Restaurant Ups the Ante
April 17, 2014
Recent personnel changes at Ashok Bajaj’s 701 Restaurant in Penn Quarter are breathing new energy into a neighborhood stalwart that’s been around 23 years. Bajaj is giving new chef, Benjamin Lambert (above), the ultimate freedom to be creative. Just this month, Lambert launched Sunday Suppers—a three-course tasting menu for $35, or $55 per person with a bottle of wine. He’s joined by Christopher McNeal, a bright and shiny new sommelier and beverage director who whips up cocktail recipes that he brought with him from Colorado and Hawaii.
