The Morning Roundup 5/25/12

Evan May 25, 2012

We’re still recovering from our great trip to Bandolero last night, but we’ll stop moaning about how much we ate long enough to bring you some deals!

Must-Buy: In my opinion, Scoutmob’s deal for Boundary Road is the best deal of the week (and this was a great week for deals!).  This new restaurant on H Street, which received a huge boost early on when President Obama took a group of campaign donors here for dinner, has already established itself as one of the best restaurants in the Atlas District.

The Morning Roundup: 5/24/2012

Steve May 24, 2012

Hey guys, happy Thursday! You’re on your way!  We have one in each category today and of course, the winner is:

Must Buy:  A free smoothie from Juice Joint Cafe is being offered today by Scoutmob.  Clearly this is a no brainer.  Blended fruit smoothies for no money right in the middle of downtown DC.  You don’t even need to print anything out! Big thanks to Scoutmob for keeping us cool as we jump into Summer.

Fifty-Fifty: Living Social’s $15 for 30 or $25 for 50 to Petits Plats is certainly a good looking offer.

Good morning! Here are your deals for the day:

Must-Buy:  RFD in Chinatown is already a great spot to grab a burger for lunch or a drink and some delicious pretzels with a friend, and today’s Groupon deal makes it that much better.  The deal doesn’t allow you to get dinner, but that’s really not what RFD is for.  We say don’t miss this one.

Must-Buy:  This isn’t a food deal, but today’s Scoutmob for Rocket Bar is a great chance to save some money at one of the more fun bars in DC.

Welcome back. You survived Monday, give yourself a pat on the back. The weather is looking pretty gross once again. The deals? A little better.

Must Buy: Scoutmob’s 50% at RedRocks Pizzeria (1036 Park Rd., NW) is a typical no brainer from Scoutmob. Good food, not overly expensive, and no committment to buy make the Columbia Heights spot a slam dunk. Good pizza with a good beer selection sounds like a recipe for a great night out. The food is a little pricey, and you’re only getting $12 off but we still say yeah to this one.

Welcome back to the week everyone. I hope you had a relaxing food filled weekend. Congrats to all the new GW and Georgetown grads. I know many of you may now be officially unemployed, but there’s good news, we have deals for you! Take advantage of these more than ever because it sure beats eating ramen everyday. On to the deals!

Must Buy: This may be the best deal we’ve ever featured. LivingSocial is offering $30 for $60 to Kushi (465 K Street NW). If you haven’t already bought it, stop reading and go do so.

Not a good end to the week for deals.  Here’s today’s one big no-no.

Avoid:  Unless you’re eating at Oh Fish! once a week, there’s no reason to buy the Capitol Deal’s sushi punch card.  Avoid this gimmicky offer and spend that $5 on lunch somewhere else.

Well, that’s all we’ve got this week at Eat the District.  Have a great weekend, and we’ll see you on Monday!

Two great deals for you today!  Here they are:

Must-Buy:  If you’re in the Del Ray neighborhood, there’s no excuse for not taking advantage of Scoutmob’s deal at St. Elmo’s Coffee Pub.  Whether you’re stopping by for a quick breakfast of coffee and a muffin or spending an hour sipping on cappuccino and listening to their live music, St. Elmo’s is worth the trip.

Must-Buy:  We’ll be talking more about Italian food later this afternoon, but The Capitol Deal’s $40 coupon for a three-course meal for two at Chef Tony’s is a great way to get a nice dinner for two at a reasonable price.

Whelp… It is pretty bleak out there today.  It appears that we only have one deal today.  And unfortunately it seems to be an

Avoid: It is hard to give a Scoutmob deal an avoid ranking but I just have to with their %50 off El Tamarindo.  A max discount of ten dollars really wont come close to covering two entrees here, most of which seem to be in the $13 area.  Also, the restaurant seems to advertise its sangria pretty heavily even though this too seems over priced.  Perhaps, this is due to it’s proximity to Adam’s Morgan.

Hello Tuesday. What terrible weather you’ve brought us. Luckily we have some deals to brighten your gloomy day.

Must Buy: $10 for $20 to Vince & Dominic’s Pizza (10474 Auto Park Avenue, Bethesda) from Google Offers screams Must Buy. The food here is good and cheap. You’re going to get a Large or Extra Large Pizza or two pasta dishes or two subs or a lot of other great combinations. It’s your standard pizza place, and everyone loves cheap pizza.

Must Buy: 50% off Artfully Chocolate and Fizz Bar is right up my alley.

Welcome back to the The Morning Roundup. Happy Monday all, I hope you’re staying dry out there. The weather’s looking gross today and tomorrow, so hopefully we’ll have some deals to warm you up.

Must Buy: Scoutmob has a good deal in Takoma Park today. Middle Eastern Cuisine and Market may not have the best name for a restaurant (or even close to the best name), but the food is good and relatively inexpensive for Middle Eastern food. You’re not getting a huge discount here, but the food is worth it.
