The Morning Roundup 6/15/2012

Oh, it’s Friday! The end of the week. La fin de semana. The weather is beautiful today and the forecast looks great for the weekend. Do we have deals to send you on your way? You bet we do!

Must Buy: DC does Ethiopian food well. It’s one of our strongest international cuisines. Any social coupon to an Ethiopian restaurant will immediate pique my interest. Make it a good Ethiopian restaurant and I’m sold. Groupon’s $7 for $15 for lunch or $15 for 30 for dinner to Nile Ethiopian (7815 Georgia Ave.

The Morning Roundup 6/11/2012

Welcome back to Monday and welcome to the June 11th edition of The Morning Roundup. We have some absolutely fantastic deals to get your week started off the right way. Let’s get the ball rolling.

Must Buy: Normally we’re wary of all you drink/all you can eat deals here at Eat the District. Yes they’re inexpensive, but we don’t like to settle for the cheap deal just because it’s cheap. Today’s Capitol Deal for Bottomless Drinks and a dinner entree for $25. Now let’s be clear, you aren’t getting top of the line alcohol.

Woke up to some lovely weather (this is June?) and some great deals. I’m really excited for some of these.

Must Buys: LivingSocial has a pair of deals that I’m a big fan of this morning. Both are event deals at their 918 F St home. The first is a beer tasting curated by local beer aficionado Greg Engert. $39 gets you a trip around the world and through time. You’ll learn (and drink) a lot. They also have some tasty appetizers on deck. The second event is just for me bro’s out there. A cooking class just for the guys.

Welcome back. I hope you had a fantastic weekend! Did you relax by the pool? Did you have a BBQ? I hope you had fun. We’re back with one deal this morning, but we like it a lot.

Must Buy: Scoutmob has a deal for you today to recently opened Columbia Heights eatery The Pinch (3548 14th St., NW). %50 off up to $12 will get you some tasty fare. The Pulled Duck Breast BBQ Sandwich sounds amazing, so you might want to try that out. Now don’t go on the weekend because this deal is only valid Sunday-Thursday. But you have to eat on those days to, so head over to Columbia Heights and enjoy something good.

Happy last day of May everyone! It’s almost Friday, you’re almost here weekend. More deals please.

Must Buy: The H Street Corridor is a burgeoning food destination. It’s got countless great options to get you going, whether it’s a pre-bar meal or just a nice meal with a date or some friends. One of those options is the Belgian gastropub Granville Moore’s (1238 H St NE). Google Offers has got you covered with a $15 for $30 deal. Now the food here is a bit pricey, so this may not get you two full meals depending on when you go.

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.

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.
