Hot Stuff: Proof

AFTER AN afternoon of art gazing at the Smithsonian American Art Museum, cross the street for dinner on Proof's outdoor patio.

Chef Haidar Karoum has devised several new dishes for warm-weather dining, including blue prawns with white bean-fennel salad and limoncello vinaigrette. The limoncello is painstakingly made by house sommelier and mixology sorcerer Sebastian Zutant. He also offers a rotating "Rosé of the Day," as well as new cocktails: the Coquette blossoms with Tanquery Rangpur, Elderflower, grapefruit bitters and Zutant's house-made rosé syrup; and the Chupa Cabra, made with Machu Pisco, yuzu sour, crème de violet and fresh lime juice, is almost too pretty to drink. But you'll manage.
