Bone marrow in DC area?

[asundstrom]

Anybody know what restaurants around DC do good or interesting things with bone marrow, or, failing that, know the best place to purchase such bones for home cooking?

Marcel's has a delectable osso bucco type dish. There's even a tiny spoon for scooping out the marrow from the bone.

I once had a bone marrow flan at Melrose. I am not sure if it is a regular item on the menu. It was amazing, and much easier to eat than regular marrow.

It was on the menu at Charlie Palmer Steak this week, as a part of an appetizer of roasted sea scallops and oxtail.

I work at Mendocino Wine Bar & Grille in the Georgetown area. We recently had a 8oz kobe ribeye on the menu with a garlic confit and poached bone marrow sauce. It didn't sell to well. People seemed a little scared of the word. too bad I just recently got on this site because I would have told you about it before we took it off the menu. I thought it was awesome, and I love bone marrow.

Marrow bones can be found at the local Giant's/Safeway. Well, it used to be, but nowadays less frequently in well-to-do areas. (They've gone missing! Along with chicken gizzards and livers... What is the world coming to these days?)

Also check at Asian/Hispanic super stores.

Jesse: Welcome to eGullet. Your experience with bone marrow sauce just goes to show that there is no accounting for taste. Some would have been attracted to it, others repelled. I imagine that some restaurants get the same reaction from pork belly.

Go to Hanarem, Super H or Grandmart. They always seem to have them. They are awesome with bit of salt and pepper. YUM.

Last week I had a ribeye at CityZen that came with a bone marrow vinaigrette. It was Rich like Bill Gates. And Good like Superman.

Bone marrow, beef, butter, joy.
