When we travel with our five kiddos, we buy groceries and eat most of our meals in our rental home and have a couple splurge lunch/dinner meals. But when we travel just as a couple, it’s typically faster paced and we’ve learned we don’t want to stop and cook just for the two of us. That tip about being honest with yourself about cooking is such a good one!!

Yep 100%

Mcdonald's saved me so much on breakfast. The hotel wanted $14 dollar breakfast, mcdonald's topped out at 5 bucks

When I was on my day trip, I packed a thermos of iced tea, couple water bottles, and brown bagged my lunch. All I had to do is have a seat and a quick bite, and back to seeing the sights. As a early dinner before my train ride back home, I did stop off at a McDonald's next to the Woodley-Park Metro. Food at Union Station tends to be pricey.

We are a family of 5. Breakfast will be at the airbnb, lunch will be while we are out, although we will bring snacks to nosh on while walking. I am planning a minimum of 2 dinners out and 2 dinners in. (6 day trip) which leaves the other 2 dinners up for grabs. I honestly think that the majority of our groceries will be snacks. Will we probably throw out food? Maybe. But the last time we did this we winded up having to make an additional food run for milk and eggs. So yes, I agree about being honest with yourself

My culinary goals for my upcoming D.C. trip come down to two things: the half-smoke and Ethiopian cuisine.

Very helpful video...this is what I do whenever I'm on vacation. I'm planning a trip to Washington DC in August and your videos have been insanely helpful in planning my trip!

@TripHacksDC 2 года назад

Happy to hear it.

For sure, fast casual lunch is our favorite meal!

When I visit DC I always stay at the Marriott Residence Inn. There is a huge Walmart in Downtown DC that I go to to get all my favorites that I cook in my hotel room.

@TripHacksDC 2 года назад

What are your favorites?

@janaglosson8214 2 года назад

When I visited DC a few months ago, I packed breakfast bars and ate them in my hotel room every morning. So I didn’t buy breakfast any day I was there:)

@TripHacksDC 2 года назад

Granola bar and coffee is also my usual breakfast 😂

Hellooo!!! I’m coming to DC by the end of july with my family… can you recommend a not that expensive restaurant for sunday brunch in Adams Morgan??? Thanks a lot!!!

@liortepper3619 2 года назад

Thanks for the video. I think that cooking for yourself in the US is much easier than in many other countries, you have many hotels with a kitchen compared to other places. That what i did when i visited DC.

@TripHacksDC 2 года назад

Compared to other countries, yes.

Takorean was one of my favorite places.. multiple locations in the area!

I am currently trying to plan for a 3 day trip to DC with kids. So maybe no fancy restaurants but still looking to try new foods.

Hi Sarah! My family will be visiting DC in August. We have an 8 year old and a 5 year old. How was your trip? Any suggestions you wouldn't mind sharing?

@gymnast1284 2 года назад

Awesome video!! Great tip to make lunch the splurge meal. Random question: is it feasible to do a day trip to the Basilica of the national shrine of immaculate conception? I am not Catholic but have seen and heard this place is stunningly beautiful. Not sure if you've mentioned or made a video of this? We will be staying in the national mall. Is it a worthwhile side trip? How long does it take to get there? (If you know). Thank you in advance for your time and sharing all this DC wisdom!!!! I greatly enjoy your channel and am a happy subscriber 😀

@TripHacksDC 2 года назад

Yes. It's feasible. Pretty easy to get there from downtown on the Red Line.

This is great video. I've watched several and all very helpful. Any videos that include tips for visiting the National Basilica of the Immaculate Conception ?

I don't have anything on that building, sorry.
