Discover the artistry of plant-based haute cuisine at Elizabeth’s on L, where innovation meets indulgence.

Once known as Elizabeth’s Gone Raw, this renowned restaurant has evolved to offer a more accessible yet equally exquisite culinary experience—one that reimagines vegan dining with sophistication and flair.

As part of our ongoing exploration of exceptional gastronomy, the Bailliage of Greater Washington invites you to experience vegan fine dining as only the Chaîne can. With growing awareness of the benefits of a plant-based diet, this is the perfect opportunity to savor a meticulously crafted menu that celebrates the unique flavor of each ingredient.

For this special evening, we will have exclusive use of the restaurant, ensuring an intimate and immersive experience.

The evening begins with a sparkling wine reception featuring passed hors d’oeuvres, followed by a multi-course journey of extraordinarily creative, labor-intensive, and exquisitely delicious cuisine. Thoughtfully curated biodynamic wines will accompany the meal, enhancing the depth and harmony of each dish.

Join us for an unforgettable evening where culinary craftsmanship and sustainability converge in a celebration of fine dining at its most inspired.

Please join the Bailliage of Greater Washington, DC as we venture to our annual summer sojourn. This year, we have two destinations:

We will begin our culinary adventure with a stop at True Treats Candy in Harpers Ferry, WV, only about an hour from Washington, DC. Susan Benjamin, Culinary Historian and shop owner will take us down memory lane (in the sweetest way) at noon. Susan will guide our exploration of the history of candy in the United States. The next part of our sojourn will take place about 15 minutes away in Shepherdstown, WV at Bistro 112 at 1:30pm. There we will enjoy a multicourse elegant luncheon created by Maître Rôtisseur Chef Paul Stearman. Many of you may remember that Paul was the Chef de Cuisine at Marcel’s in DC for 18 years. Our afternoon at Bistro 112 begins with a bubbling reception on a lovely outdoor patio (weather permitting) followed by a delicious meal in the dining room with wine paired by the chef.
