This is my go-to for Chinese delivery. It's considered one of the best in the city. Only caveat is that it can add up...it's worth it though!

Sightseeing

Very close in to the central city but a world away. A great nature walk on a nice day in any of the 4 seasons from a roaring torrent during summer storms to a frozen wonderland after a winter storm.

Samgöngur

Shaw and Mount Vernon are the closest Metros

Metro runs most frequently during work hours but is a good option for getting to sights that are farther away

Dunbarton Oaks

This house museum (Byzantine and Pre-Columbian art) and its gardens are a hidden gem of the city. It's a great activity to get away from the crowds in Georgetown.
Samgöngur

Use Capital Bikeshare - I do almost every day!

Bikes are the best way of getting around DC weather permitting.
