Dining in D.C. #3: Dog Tag Bakery (Part 2 of 2)

To celebrate the arrival of Fall here in D.C., today we returned to Dog Tag Bakery for hot coffee and some Dog treats.  

Over the past few days, the temperature and humidity have dropped quite a bit.  The result is jackets and boots are evident everywhere and there is a nice chill in the air.  At our church, the furnace has not been turned on yet, so we were a bit chilled by the end of the service and decided to thaw ourselves at nearby Dog Tag Bakery.      

You might remember from an earlier post that Dog Tag Bakery is located in Georgetown and provides service-disabled veterans with entrepreneurship training through a fellowship program connected with Georgetown University.

We enjoy visiting Dog Tag Bakery, not only because of its mission, but also because they pour a great cup of joe and serve some delectable desserts.  We were not disappointed on this visit.  We enjoyed some piping hot coffee and some Autumn-themed treats, pictured below.

Purple Sweet Potato Pie
We even had the opportunity to sit in the Obama & Biden booth.  Good times.



P.S.  On a related topic, here is a bit of advice.  Run, don't walk, to your nearest Trader Joe's for a seasonal treat:  the French Apple Pie (tarte aux pommes) is to die for.  Greg's French teacher, who is from Normandy in France, agreed that the pie tastes just like ones her mother used to make.
