Hello! Welcome to dontmissmyplate.

Thank you for visiting the website! I'm Maxine, blogger, home cook, soon to be food entrepreneur, and lover of all things food and fusion cuisine (a style of cooking that combines ingredients and methods from different countries, regions, or cultures). My approach is primarily rooted in both a Zimbabwean and American perspective based on my life experiences, making it quite varied. I hope you find the website helpful and come back! There is something for everyone, and recipes are designed to inspire you to try something new.

The Capital Burger - Mount Vernon, DC

The Capital Burger - Mount Vernon, DC

A great burger joint in DC to join the ranks, head over when you can. Whether you are looking for a bit of peace on your own or are with the happy hour crew, you'll like this place. For my first drink I tried the dark and stormy cocktail (not on the HH menu but worth it).  Plan on trying the mushroom and truffle one next time, but the capital burger and the cheese burger are absolutely delicious.
