You’ve probably walked by it a million times. But have you ever gone in? Martha’s Outfitters (14th between V and W) is a part of Martha’s Table, a local charity that provides organic, local food to the needy, has a daycare onsite, and offers programs for teens. Martha’s Table just celebrated its 30th anniversary, and Martha’s Outfitters is about to celebrate its 6th. Martha’s Table is really a staple of our community.

More than 72 hours before Maria Gomez was to sit down at her first White House state dinner, days before she’d found the teal evening gown she’d wear, her engraved invitation to Wednesday’s gala in honor of Mexican President Felipe Calderón and his wife, Margarita Zavala, was already framed and hanging on the wall outside her office at Mary’s Center for Maternal and Child Care.

You think the Energizer Bunny has unflagging energy? He’s a lazy snail compared with Demetrios Recachinas. In fact, next to the hyperkinetic food program manager at Martha’s Table, just about everyone else seems to be moving in slo-mo.

A terrific event, fabulous dishes, and an unsurpassable wine list. This is what the remarkable team of outstanding celebrity chefs and the Italian wine expert Filippo Bartolotta offered to the many Vip guests at the fundraising events put on by Alice Waters, Jose Andres and Joan Nathan in Washington on Sunday, January 24th.

I have to admit, I got a wee bit giddy when I got to shake hands and chat with Alice Waters this morning at Potenza. For a food writer (not to mention the daughter of organic food-loving hippie parents), it was a treat to meet the local food pioneer.

Chestnut agnolotti, roast chicken with truffles tucked under the skin, Italian wine and lots of foie gras: What else would one expect from a star-studded, sustainable food fundraiser put on by Chez Panisse chef-restaurateur Alice Waters and Washington’s Jose Andres and Joan Nathan?
