Chef Gillian Clark started Colorado Kitchen because the neighborhood needed a good restaurant.  Now she mans the range pretty much on her own and turns out well over a hundred meals on a busy evening.  Very impressive.

The Colorado Kitchen is also a little upscale for HollyEats.  Or not.  It's mostly solid - very solid - down home cooking with some creativity added when Gillian feels creative.

Dishes like the meat loaf above and the pineapple upside down cake - not to mention the incredible biscuits - basic eating - but prepared extraordinarily well.  Gillian's creativity comes in with the Monkfish Schnitzel to the upper right or the lobster corn dog.

I can't imagine a trip to DC without at least one meal at the Colorado Kitchen.
