Black Finn Restaurant and Saloon -
4901 Fairmont Ave. - Bethesda
Report this commentStart the week off right with a Sunday Full of Football at Black Finn. The large booths each have their own TV and most of the other patrons are also there to watch the games so the enviroment is loud and fun, almost like you're at the game itself. For added entertainment, Allen one of the bartenders is always a hoot.

Cornerstone Grill and Loft -
7325 Baltimore Ave. - College Park
Report this commentWhen I want to relive my college days, I'll hit up Conerstone on a Sunday night. Where if you purchase one of thier logoed- glass beer mugs, refills are pretty cheap for the rest of your night AND every other Sunday night that you return. Of course, there are plenty of TV's for all the football viewing one can get...

Gossip Girl review
By Maggie Furlong, Metromix - September 18, 2007
Report this commentMonday nights, I'm not gonna lie, I like to be in front of the TV - with the new season of fall TV starting, I'm gonna be busy: Gossip Girl, I Want to Work for Diddy, Jon & Kate +8 and The Hills - ALL on Monday night. Yilkes! I'll be putting my DVR into overdrive on Monday nights this fall... And that doesn't even cover how excited I am about the Tuesday night return of 90210!

Zengo -
781 7th St. N.W. - Washington (Northwest)
Report this commentTuesday night comes and I'm usually ready for dinner and a movie/datenight. My favorite of all favorite restaurants is Zengo. Ohhh so good; food, service and ambiance are all great! (It's also a good deal for lunch, with their bento box that allows you to try a little bit of everything).

Report this comment"Therapy Thursdays" at Tom-Tom is just that: Therapy for the long week you've had. Where else can you get 4 shots AND 4 beers for only $12, all while dancing to a good mix on a crowded dancefloor. I only start my nights here though -Thursday are busy, lots of places to hit...

Josephine's -
1008 Vermont Ave. N.W. - Washington (Northwest)
Report this commentAfter drinking for cheap in Adams Morgan, I head over to the K-Street area where the crowd gets a little more sophistacated (and better looking). I always attempt to get their before midnight, when it's still free if you're on list. However, most nights I miss the cut-off and end up paying $20. It's worth it to be amoungst the beautiful people of DC

Julia's Empanadas -

The Park -
920 14th St. N.W. - Washington (Northwest)
Report this commentI LOVE Park @ 14th. The crowd is attractive, the food is good, drinks are great and the staff is friendly. Every time I go there (regardless of what night), I have a great time but I usually go on Friday so I can stay well into the night (and hope for a celebrity sighting - I sat next to Fat Joe one night)!
