Sous Chef

2 years

La Shukran is a new bar, bistro, and rooftop terrace now open in the Union Market District . Featuring the cuisine of 2024 James Beard Award winner for Outstanding Chef, Michael Rafidi, a high energy cocktail program by Radovan Jankovic, and a progressive, natural-leaning wine program by William Simons.

Beneath an arched, stained glass sign at the rear of a historic building in Union Market, a green door leads to a hall where Arabic-tinged elevator music drifts down a long flight of tiled stairs leading to La Shukran - a modern reimagining of a Left-Bank watering hole, a retro-modern late-night restaurant transported from Al-Bireh to Washington, DC.
