Since moving to Washington DC, finding a cheap, decent meal is pretty difficult. It is well known that the city offers many different specials throughout the week but most are during happy hour prime time: 4-7pm and I am LUCKY if I step foot in my apartment by 6:45 leaving my opportunity for a good meal out impossible. I recently took a list of restaurants that offer specific nightly deals on foods and drinks and categorized it by the day the deal is offered. To organize it even further I color coded the genre of food so depending on the day your “Taco Tuesday” can be FREE (on Wednesdays). So as the incredibly bargain hunting foodie I am, I offer you, How to Colorfully eat and drink your way through the city without breaking your bank by Sunday!
