Marble monuments and sprawling suburbs aside, at its soul, DC is still a sleepy Southern town. And nowhere does that soul taste as sensational as at the Florida Avenue Grill. With today's home-grown deal, pay just $12 to bite into $25 worth of food and drink at this DC institution that's been serving up Southern-style soul food since 1944. As seen on The Food Network and featured everywhere from the Washington Post to the New York Times to the Boston Globe, this 11th Street eatery dishes up Virginia ham, turkey, grits, vegetarian sausage, and griddle-fried goodies that will make you loosen your belt (and lick your fingers). Dinner diners can tuck into barbecue spare ribs, Cajun catfish, or baked chicken. Admire the wall of celebrities who have dined at the Grill, come hungry, and pencil in a few hours to sleep it off afterward.
