Comings and goings

We noticed the other night a big "for lease" sign across the dark windows of Dakota Cowgirl (f/k/a Hamburger Mary's), so they've apparently gone out of business.

Also, Titan Bar (a/k/a Ramrod) upstairs over Dakota Cowgirl was dark, too. Guess they're out of business as well. Where ever will the bears go for their Friday evening happy hours now?

And, out at the Fashion Centre at Pentagon City (a/k/a the mall), the Ruby Tuesday near the mall's Metro entrance is closed, and signs foretell the advent of a Harry's Tap Room. Don't know when Harry's will open. I suppose it's a good thing to have a Harry's there, though they are several notches more expensive than Ruby Tuesday. Budget diners will just have to use the food court.

Have you ever tried to eat at a Mexican restuarant on a Friday during Lent? Talk about a challenge! About all there is are some cheese enchiladas (sometimes) or fish tacos (sometimes—and the thought of fish tacos is totally unappetizing to me). Eh.

But, Chevy's Fresh Mex has a very nice artichoke and mushroom enchilada entree on the menu. I had them Friday night and was both surprised and pleased.
