Description:
ADAMS-MORGAN. Perry's location in the hip Adams-Morgan neighborhood means that it can be a little wilder than most places, and Sunday brunch proves it. The menu offers a good selection of breakfast and lunch dishes, including pastries, eggs, waffles, quiche, and savory appetizers. However, most people come for the drag shows, where cross-dressing performers in evening gowns mingle with those looking for apple jelly. The atmosphere is lively, and shows are a lot of fun. If you're sensitive to teasing, go early though. Not many diners escape without a jab or two. METRO: Woodley Park/Zoo |
