11) PEACH CAKE – pecan cream, calendula 🀀

12) SHITTAKE CHIP COOKIE

A return visit last month to enjoy the final Solstice menu. One recurring theme about dining @oysteroysterdc is that it’s never too early in the experience to declare the current course is your favorite of the evening. Similarly, you might declare the current seasonal menu is your favorite to date. And both sentiments are generally true πŸ‘πŸ˜ƒ
