Where To Eat In Arlington When You Are Nearly Broke II
Matuba has a $1 a piece nigiri sushi night on Mondays. I like Matuba, but have not been there in quite a while because I tend to visit metro accessible restaurants more often than not. Cafe Asia has a Happy Hour Monday Through Friday, 4:30-7:30pm, during which nigiri sushi is $1 a piece, and select beers are $2. I was there a couple of nights ago and felt that the sushi was a good value. Whitlow’s on Wilson has 1/2 price burgers all day on Mondays. I like their burgers, fries, and onion rings. Monday evenings can be quite busy there. They also have a Tuesday-Friday 1/2 price sandwich lunch special, but I haven’t had their sandwiches. I generally go to La Tasca for dessert, since their desserts are excellent, but the restaurant does have some specials worth mentioning. The restaurant offers a free paella station at the bar Friday evenings 4:00-7:00pm. They also have Monday-Friday Happy Hour specials of $2.45 fried eggplant (berejenas fritas), and $2.45 fried potatoes (patatas panaderas) appetizers, $3 draft beer, $3 per glass and $13 pitcher sangria. Happy Hour specials are only offered at the bar. Desserts are 1/2 price on Sundays.

Peruvian chicken, fries, and coleslaw for five bucks (or thereabouts, with a little extra if you want an Inca Kola--and you know you do)! :-) Posted by: bettyjoan at June 30, 2006 11:10 AM I'm a big fan of EPR, but I haven't gotten past the daily specials and Happy Hour recommendations yet. :) Oh, I so don't want an Inca Cola. :) Thanks for commenting. :) Posted by: Jason at June 30, 2006 12:40 PM I love the specials at LaTasca - I'll have to check out Matuba. Thanks! Posted by: Brandi at July 2, 2006 12:18 PM This series of articles is fantastic. I'm sure I will get a lot of use from it. Hope to see more like this. (Yeah, El Pollo Rico is awesome.) Off the subject, but in the same geographic area, does the author have anything to say about the imminent closing of Lazy Sundae (across the street from La Tasca as I recall)? What will/should Arlington denizens do for ice cream cravings _now_? Posted by: circus at July 10, 2006 3:28 PM Thanks so much Brandi. A followup is in the works. I like the icecream at Arax (an Armenian cafe) on Washington Blvd. in Westover, especially the chocolate and the (seasonal) peppermint. Get a chicken/garlic pita sandwich while you are at it. Oh, and an Armenian coffee, which is Turkish Coffee with cardamum. Posted by: Jason at July 11, 2006 1:00 AM Post a comment |
