Chuy's to celebrate Elvis' birthday this Sunday in Rockville

Chuy's, the recently-opened Tex-Mex restaurant in Federal Plaza on Rockville Pike, will celebrate the birthday of Elvis Presley this Sunday, January 8 - and the birthday gift could be for you. Come dressed as Elvis or Priscilla Presley, and you'll receive a free entree. Even if you don't arrive in costume, you'll still get $1 off The King's namesake plates at the chain, Elvis Green Chile Fried Chicken and the Elvis Presley Memorial Combo.

Also on sale, will be the appropriately-named frozen Blue Hawaiian cocktail, and limited-edition Elvis t-shirts. If you remember my review when Chuy's opened, you'll recall that Elvis is something of a patron saint for the restaurant since the first one opened in Austin in 1982 sporting a $20 velvet painting of The King.

"Our annual birthday party for Elvis is just one of thequirky things that makes Chuy's - Chuy's," John Korman, Director of Operations for Chuy's, said in a statement. "We love any excuse for a party, so why not enjoy a plate of enchiladas with a Frozen Blue Hawaiian and toast The King on his birthday? We hope folks will join us and have a good time."

Elvis would have been 82 on Sunday.
