​
It's been a while so it's going to be so lovely to have to opportunity to sit together for yet another fabulous meal!
​
Chef Ali Mesghali is at the helm of Rumi's kitchen, Washington D.C. who had a vision of an authentic Persian restaurant - with a modern and elegant twist. Inspired by Persian calligraphy, and rustic old-world elements of architecture, the design at Rumi’s Kitchen's DC location creates an authentic Persian look with subtle details and references.
The space is dynamic, the buzz a pleasant hum and the food divine! It's exactly the upbeat sort of place one would want to spend a great weekend meal at. The dishes are fragrant, saffron yellow and turmeric, fragrant dill, roasted and braised meats and grilled meat from the tandoor all add to the flourish. The smart front of house staff in black suits, run the show with precision and the dance of platters will keep us all entertained.

Here's what past guests had to say"
"It's always a great experience when you celebrate a meal with the Weave A Thousand Flavors Supper Club. The Lapis restaurant had great tasting authentic Afghani food served by a friendly and professional staff in a controlled yet bustling environment. The memories that I reflect on, as I think of our first outing of 2019, are the ones that celebrate the gastronaut members that make up the supper club. I enjoyed the welcoming atmosphere, the offering of friendship and the sharing of a meal as we celebrate the experience of breaking bread together. It just feels like home!!"
"What a great way to enjoy some fantastic food at a new place and meet with old friends and new! Devaki always picks such wonderful places for a true DC dining experience. Can’t wait for the next outing!"
"Every Supper Club experience is unique in delicious cuisine and ambiance, and there's no better group with which to share them!"
"Maydan was spectacular. Tucked away off Florida Ave, it is a hidden gem. The many courses of sumptuous food were so flavorful and perfectly prepared...from the assortment of appetizers to the lamb that was cooked for 72 hours. I particularly loved the squid! The company was fabulous and I met several new friends I hope to stay in touch with. All in All, worth every penny! Can’t wait to do it again!"
