Good Food, Good Times

Well, Restaurant Week is fast approaching. For those of you reading this who are new to the city, Restaurant Week opens the doors of up-scale dining to those of us on a tight budget. Three course meals are offered for $20.05 for lunch and $30.05 for dinner. There is a fairly even split between restaurants that offer their entire menus to choose from and those that restrict the prix fixe to a small selection or group of specials. For a fairly comprehensive list of what each participating restaurant is offering, I highly suggest the enlightened website of the DCfoodies.

Last summer I only got to enjoy 15Ria with its upscale American comfort food. This winter, I am taking in at least three other fine locales, DC Coast, Ten Penh, and Butterfield9. Unfortunately for my tastes, 1789 was already booked up (except for a 9:30 table that the Sig-O flatly rejected). Well, there will always be the summer restaurant week.
