Two special chocolate donuts this month at Krispy Kreme may end up sabotaging your New Years diet resolution. Rules were made to be broken!
It's too easy - they even have a drive-thru! When the Hot Donuts Now sign is on, pulling in off Shady Grove Road to get some is mandatory.
Can you name the best-selling spirit/ in the world?
Whiskey? Vodka? Rum? Gin? Tequila?
No!
It's Soju, from Korea!
Often compared to vodka (and that's hmmm... not exactly right, but close), Soju is a distilled spirit found in cocktails on both sides of the Pacific Ocean.
But in Korea, it might be enjoyed chilled and straight. Soju ads are as glamorous as any Western alcohol marketing campaign, if not more.
So if you're tired of the same happy hour, stop by a place like MOA Korean Restaurant at 12300 Wilkins Avenue in Rockville.
You can get a bottle of soju, and pair it with some of the Happy Hour menu options. These include the MOA hot dog, bulgogi sandwich and wings. MOA's wings offer authentic flavors, whether your preference is DC's favorite Mambo Sauce or Korean spice.
Is today Wednesday? No, it's Wingsday at Hooters of Rockville.
Get 10 boneless wings, fries and sauce for only $6.99 all day long.
This week, Quench has launched a new lunch deal that runs from Tuesday through Friday: 10 different lunch entrées for $10 a piece. Chicken and Waffles sandwich and New Orleans Po'Boy sound good to me!
Quench is located at 9712 Traville Gateway Drive.
Word that testing of McDonald's chicken wings - known as "Mighty Wings" has expanded to Chicago naturally is generating speculation about a nationwide rollout.
Of course, so did McPizza.
But these wings aren't so new. A previous test years ago included some DC area McDonald's. I had some myself. My vague memory is that they came in a white cardboard container, and were called Mighty Wings then, too. And that they were fairly good wings.
If you can add to that recollection, please leave a comment below with your memories.
I don't recall the sauces available. But word that McDonald's won't have special sauces, and use the current ones instead, is cause for concern. As big a fan of McDonald's nugget sauces as I am, when it comes to wings, Blue Cheese is an absolute must!
Enjoy DC Restaurant Week 2013 without leaving Rockville!
Chef Geoff's Rockville (menu not online yet) and La Tasca Rockville (click for menu) are participating in the popular prix fixe event February 4-10.
Lunch will be $20.13, and dinner $35.13.
I will pass along the Chef Geoff's menu as soon as it is posted. But having dined at other Chef Geoff's locations during past Restaurant Weeks, the menu is usually quite generous - virtually the entire menu was available. Which makes it one of the best RW deals.
Agh! The first full week of work of 2013. How will you make it to Friday?
How about unlimited wings tonight at Hooters of Rockville?
That's right: After 6 PM tonight, you can enjoy those famous Hooters wings - all you can eat - for only $10.99 (boneless)/$12.99 (traditional)!
Where else can you find wing sauces called Samurai, Daytona Beach or Habanaro BBQ?
Only at Hooters, of course. Offer good for dine-in customers only.
