Range - new Bryan Voltaggio place in Chevy Chase
Video here: http://live.washingtonpost.com/ask-to...
I live nearby so and I've been to Volt, so I have high hopes, though I have to admit that it sort of sounds like "all trends to all people." Snout-to-tail, salumeria, raw bar, wood-burning oven, etc. Curated retail store in partnership with Williams & Sonoma. At the moment, the decor looks sterile & bland. Nonetheless, can't wait to try it.

I was there for their soft opening on Wednesday, and I have to say that this place is definitely meat-centric. The place even smells intoxicatingly like roasting pork! Everything we ate was very good, although the rabbit was a triumph. Even though this place is massive, the designers have worked hard to make it feel intimate and they did a good job. The tables are nicely spaced (not too close) and the whole place just feels comfortable. Definitely a place to hang out in and eat. Although the wait staff describe the menu as small plate, the individual plates are generous. I couldn't help wishing we had brought along a friend or two then we could have sampled more. We will definitely be returning although not as soon as I would like - it looks as if they are filling seats well into the new year.

Kimchee and pumpernickel pasta. I sure hope they meant two separate things! Kimchee. Pumpernickel pasta. And not a pasta made from kimchee and pumpernickel.

Menu is here: http://www.voltrange.com/pdf/menu.pdf
It is two different pastas. Both sound good to me...

It looks like the menu is way too big for everything to be excellent. I haven't been to VOLT but have been to Family Meal and loved it, but the menu isn't huge. Seems like this could be mediocre - I hope it's not, but even given the location it'll be packed. That area needs restaurants.
