Don’t worry if you’ve already slipped up on your “responsible eating” resolution- everyone in the D.C. area knows that can’t start until the end of Winter Restaurant Week!
Not that I’m condoning irresponsible eating (thought, at times, I have), but it’s hard to resist the opportunity to wine and dine, multiple times, at the area’s best restaurants at a fraction of the regular cost. Once again, starting Monday, close to 180 restaurants in D.C., Maryland and Virginia will be offering up amazing, three-course meals for only $20.10 for lunch and/or $35.10 for dinner. The list of restaurants to choose from may seem daunting, so to help you out, here’s some can’t-miss spots: Falls Church’s 2941 (lunch only) & Argia’s, Jeff Buben’s Bistro Bis & Vidalia, the bar at Bourbon Steak DC, ridiculous steak at Capital Grille in Tysons & D.C., Nage in the Dupont Courtyard Marriott, the brand new RIS, Old Town’s Vermilion, the exceptional Willow in Arlington and my personal favorite, Grille at the Morrison House. So get to wining and dining- resolutions are only a week away.
