Anytime of day is perfect for the Spanish Steps. Make sure and check out Mitchell Park at the top of the hill for sunshine and great views.
If you go when the weather is warm, the sorbet and crepe folks will undoubtedly be out among the art, thrift and produce vendors. Grab a crepe and some strawberry jalapeno or coconut pear sorbet.
Pray you go on a day the donut guy is working. Makes mini donuts, fresh, to order, has cinnamon and sugar to sprinkle on them right there, and a killer white chocolate sauce. Nice guy, too.
Get the veggie quesidalla and a side of plantains from Tortilla Cafe across from the market.

The market operated from 1873 until 2007. At the start of the 20th century the market was recognized as the unofficial "town center" of Capitol Hill. Badly damaged by fire in 2007, it reopened in 2009
Go to Acacia between 5:30-6:30 and order off the $23 fixed price menu. What a deal! Tuesdays are half price wine bottles! (When in doubt, get the oysters or crab cakes.)
