$3 off Pizzas at Rustik Tavern’s Happy Hour

Evan May 30, 2012

On the corner of T and First Street NW in the Bloomingdale neighborhood sits Rustik Tavern, a tiny bar and restaurant that’s putting out some really delicious food.  Brunch here is great, if a bit pricey: their frittatas are delicious and served in huge portions, with a side of fantastic roasted breakfast potatoes and a house-made biscuit.  But the real star of the show at Rustic is their pizza, baked in the restaurant’s brick oven.  And at happy hour, you can get a pizza for $3 off, making Rustik Tavern a fantastic dinner bargain.

Heritage India, a pretty swanky looking restaurant with one location just south of Dupont Circle and a second a few blocks north of Georgetown, is not a place you’d expect to find cheap food.  A quick look at the menu confirms this: chicken tikka masala will run you $16, lamb vindaloo costs $18.  But on my visit to Heritage India last Friday, dinner for three cost about $30, or just $10 a person.  The secret–just like for sushi– is to go during happy hour.

$1 Sushi Happy Hour

Evan May 10, 2012

Sushi doesn’t exactly scream cheap eats. In fact, there’s something a little bit frightening about eating inexpensive raw fish – it raises far too many questions in my head, at least. Why is this so cheap? Is it old? Is it low-quality? Do I really want to be eating bargain raw fish? It doesn’t exactly inspire confidence. When you’re eating sushi you’re willing to pay more to know it’s good, and a night at a sushi place typically turns into an expensive affair.
