From a press release:
“As its fourth anniversary approaches, Chef Victor Albisu announces changes to the interior and menu at Del Campo, his Washington, D.C. South American grill. Since opening in April 2013, Del Campo has brought the lifestyle and food culture of Argentina, Uruguay, Chile and Peru to the nation’s capital. Now, with an annual milestone approaching, Albisu is expanding the restaurant’s geographic ambitions to explore even more of Latin America’s unique flavors, while updating the dining room with dramatic touches that better match the cooking’s contemporary energy and flair. Updates in the dining room and kitchen don’t mean a total overhaul; the restaurant’s most popular features, its traditional asado, Del Campo at Dusk rooftop parties and seasonal cooking classes are stronger than ever.
“To anyone walking into Del Campo for the first time in a while, it’s going to look like an abrupt change,” Albisu says. “But this has been more of an evolution that has been taking place since we opened. Restaurants like Del Campo always reflect the passions and interests of their chefs, and those things grow as we explore and learn. Del Campo has never been a static concept, and my South American travels have really opened my eyes to the long existing interconnectivity of South American, European, Asian and North American cooking. We figured that the fourth anniversary was a great opportunity to freshen up the dining room and put some of the more interesting and adventurous dishes we have been playing with over the last few years front and center on the menu.”
