Asian-accented seafood boil-in-a-bag feasts


























"From February 1–29 I tried five dragon-themed cocktails at Falls Church’s Vietnamese sibling restaurants at 944 W. Broad Street, each representing one of the elements (fire, water, earth, metal, wood), and learned that guests who spend $202.40 or more at each restaurant can receive a lì xì red envelope with chances at prizes totaling $24,000." - Tierney Plumb

"Head to the Asian-influenced seafood restaurant on Monday and Tuesday for $1 oysters (sold in sets of six) and 50-percent off bottles of wine. And additional location sits in Centreville." - Tierney Plumb

"At Chasin’ Tails, the beignets are served with a strawberry coulis ($9). The dessert stands up on its own, but the option to add vanilla ice cream is a welcome touch." - Abi Newhouse

"The Hurricane is one of the “Bayou cocktails” at this Arlington crawfish and seafood spot, made with Malibu coconut rum, Captain Morgan, and Myer’s dark rum ($12). There’s a Northern Virginia location in Centreville, too." - Stephanie Carter

"I'm following Chasin’ Tails, a restaurant inspired by Louisiana backyard crawfish boils and funded by the Dang brothers, which is moving about a mile to Founders Row in Falls Church this June pending permitting and will join other Dang-backed restaurants like Roll Play and Nue." - Stephanie Carter
