Amidst a swirl of media speculation about Michel Richard’s possible ventures in the Tysons Corner Ritz Carlton Hotel – his staff confirms that they’re talking – his Georgetown restaurant, Citronelle, has issued a business-as-usual press release. Announcements include a spring menu featuring earthy tastes of asparagus, morels and ramps, the relaxation of the “jackets required” rule and confirmation of its recently adjusted hours of operation, Tuesday–Saturday, 6–10 PM. Diners looking for more casual deals can head to its sidewalk cafe and lounge, where menu prices range from $10–$44 and jeans and sneakers are welcome (202-625-2150).
