Another way to beat the heat? Visit Artisan Confections in Clarendon. Chocolates like to be kept cool so it’s always just a little bit chilly in their shop. Try out their new summer creations like lemon-strawberry and macadamia nut.
#102 – Get Smoothies at Robeks
Stay cool with smoothies, shakes, and freezes from Robeks with locations in the Ballston area and Shirlington.
#101 – Dine at Lyon Hall

Operated by the same people who have Liberty Tavern and Northside Social nearby, Lyon Hall is a French brassserie in Clarendon that opened in 2010. Food choices include charcuterie, cheeses, mussels, sausages, skirt steak frites, and veal sauerbraten. An attractive outdoor dining area makes this a nice spot for a Summer evening.
#99 – Dine at Inca Social
Inca Social on Wilson Boulevard in the Courthouse Neighborhood offers some of the best Peruvian food in the area.
NOTE: This post was originally for Ray’s Hell Burger and Ray’s Hell Burger Too which are now closed.

#98 – Celebrate Bastille Day
Arlington’s La Côte d’Or Café at 6876 Lee Highway in Arlington celebrates Bastille Day with a special menu, sparklers, live music and waiter races. The winner of the race to carry as many glasses of champagne gets a free trip to Paris.
Visit La Cote D’Or at other times of the year for authentic French cuisine. They also host frequent special dinners with musical entertainment and offer a three course Prix Fix menu.
#90 – Dine on Caribbean Food
UPDATE: The original post was about Caribbean Breeze, which is now closed, but you can still get Carribean food at Carribean Grill at 5183 Lee Highway.
When the August heat and record breaking temperatures hit our area a little Caribbean Breeze sounds nice, doesn’t it? Caribbean Breeze restaurant on Fairfax Drive offers Nuevo Latino Fare, exotic cocktails, beautiful surroundings, the largest dance floor in Arlington, and a covered patio to take it all in.
