From a press release:
“Donohoe Hospitality will proudly debut Croix, a Caribbean restaurant and Botanic Bar that brings the full breadth of Caribbean cooking and botanical tradition to Washington, DC, Friday, August 14. Located atop the Cambria Hotel Washington D.C. Navy Yard Riverfront, Croix will add a unique and elegant dining experience to the city’s rooftop landscape through a menu rooted in Crucian culinary heritage, an immersive botanical cocktail program, and a hospitality experience designed around connection, culture, and discovery.
An homage to the island of St. Croix in the U.S. Virgin Islands, Croix is not a Caribbean-inspired concept—it is a Caribbean-rooted one. The restaurant’s culinary program draws from generations of Caribbean tradition, celebrating ingredients such as breadfruit, callaloo, sorrel, pigeon peas, cassava, and Scotch bonnet peppers through both classic and contemporary techniques and refined presentation.
