Welcome to Casual Dining Out, the event series where we explore counterserve establishments, food halls, and other venues for quick bites of Asian, "fusion", and other fare! As in the past, the field for these events will typically be limited, so please RSVP quickly if you know you're coming (or drop out quickly if you can't make it to give others a chance). RSVPs will close at 4 PM the day of the event and anyone who drops afterwards may be subject to the dreaded "no show" designation. This edition: Hunan specialties and other delectable Chinese fare. As always, a bonus activity could follow if the mood is right. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- If you have Instagram, you can check out our account at asiandiningandadventuregroup for photos and announcements of group outings!

Come join us for a taste of Korean, Japanese & Chinese cuisine at Tilly's Kitchen in Chantilly, where we get together for some dinner and play some board games until closing time. This will be a smaller event, due to the small capacity. If you are waitlisted, please standby until a spot opens up.

Our NEIGHBORHOOD GEMS series features emblematic meals from around the world. This series shines a light on local restaurants and is designed to bring together inquisitive foodies and dishes that are unique and oh so worth a trip on roads less traveled! Join us for authentic Greek & Turkish dishes at ***Smyrna***! **From Northern Virginia Magazine** Chef Zeynep Güngören hails from Izmir, the third largest city in Turkey. Izmir, known as Smyrna until 1930, is located on the Aegean Sea. Not surprisingly, given its location, Greece and Turkey have squabbled over the city for millennia. The ancient site was once famous as one of Greece’s most important ports and later became a key site in Alexander the Great’s empire. Even today, its residents share strong influences of both countries. An aesthetician by trade, Güngören is new to the world of the professional kitchen. But after taking a first bite of her tzatziki, moussaka, or baklava, diners will realize that this isn’t an inadequacy but a stroke of luck for them to be able to discover this fresh talent. Zeynep and her husband, Alp Güngören, opened Smyrna Restaurant and it has attracted a hushed buzz among area food obsessives. It’s not just the ingredients on plates that are fresh — Alp believes that Smyrna is the only restaurant in the United States serving the Izmir-inspired, pan-Aegean cuisine in which he and his wife trade. For diners who can’t decide between Greek and Turkish for their next meal out, Smyrna has tastes of both, but national borders shouldn’t dictate what one orders. Zeynep cooks the food of her Aegean family, which combines the influences of her Greek grandmother and her parents, including her Turkish chef father. “Our goal is to transport our guests to the warm shores of the Aegean,” says Alp. The young couple settled in the U.S. five years ago, with Alp previously working at Michelin-recognized Levantine restaurant Ala and Turkish restaurant Ottoman Taverna, both in DC. It was his dream to have a business of his own with his wife’s big flavors on full display. This is a service to us, complete with the well-versed front-of-house team he manages. To attract neighborhood diners, the couple, who also are parents to two young children, offer low-cost prix fixe menus that make every day at Smyrna feel like Restaurant Week. For $35, dinner guests are treated to four courses known as the Aegean Odyssey. It’s a good starting point, but reasonable prices on the á la carte menu mean that for most, it’s worth a few more dollars per person to order dishes like the spread sampler. I always thought tzatziki was a little boring, more worthy of inclusion in a gyro than as a stand-alone appetizer. That was before I tried Zeynep’s version. Singing with mint and with a light pucker of fresh yogurt, the cucumber dip tastes new. Fewer diners will be familiar with Turkish atom, a crave-worthy portion of labneh (strained yogurt) that’s given a spicy topping of sundried chiles in sanguine-looking melted butter. Among the five other dips on the menu, hummus is the only forgettable entry, lacking in both acidity and garlic. But others make up for it. The baba ghanoush (on the menu as baba-ghannush) is exceptionally creamy, thanks to the addition of Greek yogurt to smooth out the texture of the charred eggplant with tahini. Pembe sultan pairs finely chopped beets with labneh and garlic for a sweet surprise that never verges on dessert. Her dolmades will win over even a diner who dislikes grape leaves. The warm center of rice is dotted with pine nuts for texture and sweet dried black currants. They’re served in pools of tangy yogurt sauce that enliven each comforting bite. Whatever starter diners choose, they should add the saganaki for the entertainment alone. The server who lit our portion of stretchy kasseri cheese aflame with a dousing Metaxa, a Greek muscat-blended spirit, looked genuinely gleeful to play with fire for us. The lemon-tempered result was every bit as delightful on the palate. Among entrées, moussaka, with its pairing of melty kashkaval cheese and bechamel sauce, is a lush, mouth-coating extravaganza of texture and flavor. The eggplants and potatoes layered with ground beef are tender, but never mushy. A bowl stacked with petite Turkish manti — beef-filled dumplings in dueling garlicky yogurt and spicy tomato-based sauce — is just as satisfying, in part thanks to a shower of mint. But an argument could be made to skip the entrées and order multiple starters and desserts. The chocolate baklava isn’t just filled with chocolate, it is made with layered leaves of chocolate phyllo dough, then finished with chocolate ice cream. Excessive? Yes, in the best possible way. The pastry is far from dry but doesn’t suffer from even a hint of the waterlog that baklavas often do. It crackles and shatters outside and oozes from within. But to stop there would mean missing out on the other pleasures at hand. Chocolate fiends could go for another application of their favorite vice and try the pasta sokolatina — Greek chocolate cake. A layer of cream rests atop pleasantly rugged cake, all enrobed in ganache. Ask the Güngörens, though, and they will say to try the rice pudding. It’s emulsified with mastic, a plant resin that’s responsible for the gummy chew of Turkish Delight, among other desserts. The cinnamon-scented, al dente grains of rice in a thick cream are oven-baked for a browned top, then served chilled. The neighborhood has welcomed Smyrna with both OpenTable Diners’ Choice and NextDoor Neighborhood Fave awards, and it can be a challenge to land a table at the small restaurant on weekends. For that reason, the Güngörens are already pondering a move to a larger spot. Zeynep says the greatest reward is that she’s making her family proud. And she’s doing it by sharing their culture with her new neighbors, transporting them, for a moment, to the Aegean coast. **Check out the menu** **[here](https://restaurantsmyrna.com/dinner-menu)** Separate checks will be arranged in advance.

Does your soul need a little boost on Tuesday? it's important to continue our healing/self growth journeys and build support for one another through our community. I know first hand how important it is to have people you can share and talk to along this journey. Many people don't understand it and think you are crazy. We know better, and we know we are making huge improvements in our lives. However, if you don't have support and feel alone, you could just give up. That would be a shame, so with this in mind, we will meet and explore many different parts of spirituality. This will be a free form experience, and will change according to the energy and preference of the group. Some nights we might do a meditation, some I might do some Access Healing work. Other ideas might include: Chanting, card readings, manifesting, visualizations, book discussions, crystals, affirmations, chakras, writing, past lives, Angels, coloring, clearings, astrology, mudras, nutrition and general discussions to raise your consciousness - the list is endless! We will also have guest hosts from time to time to learn about other topics under this huge umbrella! Join us to get your weekly dose of good energy, and we will all rise together! When we do, it has a ripple effect throughout our community and our whole planet! Yes, you do matter and what you do and think makes a big difference in the world! I can't wait to grow with you! We are flexible, we will start about 6:30, but if you can't get there then, join us whenever you can. This is a love based FREE event to support and help you soar, but DONATIONS are appreciated!

**In a time of division and isolation, come be part of the community that's rebuilding the town square, one table at a time.** In BreadBreakers, we use the common space of the dining table to have conversations where neighbors can **hear, be heard, and know one another.** If you're hungry for good conversation and deeper community, join us for a Community Dinner in Reston and help blaze the trail to a healthier, more connected society and democracy. Here’s how it works: For just two hours, multiple tables of people set aside the need to "win" and instead focus on sharing, listening, and connecting. Guided by experienced table hosts, we'll tell our stories, try to understand each other, and practice being in community with those with different views or backgrounds. **At this dinner, participants will get to choose between three different topics, including some current events.** Topics range from the political, to the "slice of life", to the spiritual, to the philosophical, to the off-the-wall - but no matter which table you choose to sit at, you can be sure it'll be like no dinner conversation you've had before! You can also **suggest a topic** by emailing us at BreadBreakersInfo@gmail.com. Food will be provided for free. For those who wish to provide a donation to help fund BreadBreakers, you can [give here](https://pushpay.com/g/restorationrestonumc?fnd=pO6G-N7oO7FH7Mp1u-x6mA&fndv=Lock&r=No&lang=en&src=pcgl) or at the event.
