P.F. Chang's at Tyson's Galleria

My sister and I had a lovely lunch together at P.F. Chang's.

I ordered green tea noodles. They were cold, to my surprise, but they turned out to be very tasty.

I also had steamed vegetable dumplings that were yummy!

Lunch at Assaggi Osteria in McLean

Assaggi Co-Owner Giovanni Cesaratto with Christine and Andrea

Andrea and I had a delightful New Year's Lunch - a bit late - at our favorite restaurant in Northern Virginia, Assaggi Osteria.

It's cranberry juice!

Mezzi rigatoni with goat cheese, sliced almonds, and marjoram. Delicious!

Brunette, a speciality of Torino, for dessert

Andrea happy as a clam


Andrea opted for spaghetti alle vongole.

Merkamo Ethiopian Restaurant in Springfield

B and I had a delicious lunch at Merkamo, an Ethiopian restaurant in Springfield. We shared the Vegetable Sampler. The best part was the bread that served as the meal's plate.
