While we were at Pentagon City and Pentagon Row this afternoon, we stopped in for a very early dinner at Champp's Americana, a sports bar and restaurant we usually avoid because of the crowds and the noise. It was blissfully quiet while we were there, though there were at least half a dozen big flat-panel TVs that we could see from our table each with a different sports channel playing.
The food was surprisingly decent. Sorry we've no photos.....I didn't take my camera. Leo started with some fried mozzarella sticks with marinara dipping sauce. They had a light crunchy breading on them. For his main course, he had the jambalaya pasta, a fettucine dish with chicken, shrimp and andouille sausage in a light red sauce. He ate it all, so I guess it was good. I had the Cypress Creek Salad, and, wow! it was really good! It had an interesting combination of turkey, chicken, ham, and bacon with both Swiss cheese gratings and feta cheese crumbles in a creamy tomato vinaigrette. Wonderful explosion of flavors. Of course, with all that meat and cheese, I'm sure the salad had more calories and fat than some of the steaks on the menu!
