Time To Visit DC For The Cherry Blossoms
Tuesday, 09 March 2010
The National Cherry Blossom Festival is fast approaching, and Washington DC is ready for the three festival weekends from March 27 through April 11. The National Park Service recently announced that the famed cherry trees lining the Tidal Basin are forecasted to hit their peak bloom April 3-8 and Destination DC, the city's official convention and tourism corporation, is inviting travelers to experience spring beauty in the nation's capital by booking cherry blossom and spring break getaways.

More than 70 DC restaurants participate in the National Cherry Blossom Festival by serving up "Cherry Picks" - themed menu-items delightfully flavored with cherries and inspired by the blossoms. Festive cocktails, succulent entrées, and delectable cherry desserts show off the talents of the city's top chefs.

For the 2010 promotion, offerings include Roasted Lamb with Celery Root Puree and Cherry Lamb Jus at Urbana Restaurant & Wine Bar, or CommonWealth Gastropub's Tempranillo Cherry Ice Cream Sandwich. A complete list of participating restaurants, along with their specialty menu items, can also be found at Washington.org/cherryblossom
