^^ Me too. We went to the Melting Pot in Dupont for the last one and had a feast!

Good choice putting $4,000 rims on your 1990 Honda Civic. That's like Betty White going out and getting her tits done.

Anyone want to plan a night out? Resturant suggestions? I'd do the Melting Pot again.

Not that I've gone to any of these, but how about one of the following?

Chima Brazilian Steakhouse, Vienna, VA
Daniel O'Connell's Irish Restaurant, King St, Alexandria, VA
Extra Virgin of Shirlington, Alexandria, VA
Fleming's Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar, McLean, VA
J.R.'s Stockyards Inn, McLean, VA
Obi Sushi, Reston, VA

I listed sites in VA because that's going to be a lot more convenient for most of us on this site (with at least one exception being me ;) ).

And I'm aware of the irony that DC Restaurant Week is intended to draw people into the District for lunch and dinner ... and we're using it to dine in Virginia.

If anyone's been to any of these, please chime in with your opinions. Thanks!

Yeah, boo melting Pot.
I can usually find something to eat at any place. Just don't expect to split the bill evenly.

I'm here for a couple of weeks. I'll do a night on the towm with my bestest buds.
