Which restaurants would you recommend? is there something I should/could add to this itinerary? Any and all sugestion welcome
As to the Opera question, there is a seat map of the Kennedy Center Opera house at
http://www.kennedy-center.org/tickets/opera.html. If you are going for good quality orchestra (stalls for UK readers) seats, I would recommend between about rows S and W. If you go back any farther, you are under the balcony and the sound suffers. If you go closer you'll get a crook in your neck.
Don't know when you are planning to go, but I saw I Vespri Siciliani last night, and the singing and orchestra was fantastic, but design and direction was a bit weak.
As far as restaurants are concerned, there really isn't much at all near the Kennedy Center. The Watergate restaurant is nearby, but I haven't been there in years, nor have I been to the Terrace restaurant.
For a post-theatre meal, there is always the Bistro Francais, a classic on M St. in Georgetown, which still manages to serve a reasonable meal. It is open to the wee hours of the morning.
Have fun on the trip!
