I headed down to the Maine Avenue Fish Market, known to locals as "the wharf." It's only half a mile from the much-touristed Tidal Basin, but remains a low-key and local spot, especially on weekdays. Office workers, laborers, and a few tourists were taking advantage of the temperate summer weather to slurp a few oysters and crack a crab or two on the harbor before heading back to their jobs.
