Passion Fish

C – Seriously, the best salmon in town. I mean look at that thing. Back in August, K and I decided we needed a lunch break and met at Passion Fish in Reston Town Center. We were pleasantly surprised to find out it was Restaurant Week, which meant we both got a 3-course meal for $20.14. (Very sad that it crept up on us. We’re usually so in tune with that stuff! We’ll be better for the winter dates – we swear!)

We both went for the Miso-Glazed Organic Salmon because, as an entree, the cost would have been $23, but the 3-course meal was, obviously, less. Clearly some serious value for the money. K started with the Crab + Corn Soup and I had the Beet Salad.

We finished with the Chocolate Mousse Crunch. All in all, an unexpectedly decadent lunch for a random Wednesday. We loved it.

Restaurant Week

K – Restaurant Week is happening now and it’s a great opportunity to experience many of the great restaurants in our area at a reasonable price. For just $20.14 you can get a 3-course lunch or $35.14 for a 3-course dinner. It’s best if you can book ahead on a site like OpenTable to ensure you can get in as many of the restaurants get very crowded during this time. Also if you plan to do lunch make certain that the restaurant is including lunch for Restaurant Week as not all are doing lunch and dinner.

Some of the fabulous restaurants that are participating include 1789 (dinner only), 701 (lunch and dinner), Cuba Libre (lunch and dinner), FarmersFishersBakers (dinner only), Mintwood Place (dinner only), RIS (lunch and dinner) and The Source (lunch).

Restaurant Week ends 19 January however some do extend the offer for longer so check their websites. Bon appetit!
