Well, then might I recommend any of the respectable chain restaurants in the Fairfax area.  The veal ravioli is to die for!  In fact, I go to The Fairfax Olive Garden for the pasta.  And I go to The Patriot Center for the pretzels.  I paid over 500 to see the Stones just so I could wrap my lips around one of those fluffy Pat Center pretzels.  It's heaven in your mouth.

did the stones play the pat.?  i thought it was the verizon . . . or was it still the mci, then.  either way, the dough there is for fools who enjoy the thing twisted into a kneed for it.
 five hundred dollars, senoir?  maybe if all living pink floyd members got back together to do an aniversary "the wall" tour in the form of a traveling musical of two acts, with geldolf as pink, jerry hall as the groupie (i liked her from the berlin version) and bob hoskins as the manager.  thrown in some "final cut" songs to round it off, and i'm s(h)urly cashing in some bonds.

The Primo Avacado sandwich at Dos Gringos is one of the best things I've ever eaten:
 
 Avocado, garlic mayo, hard boiled egg, bell peppers, lettuce and tomato on your choice of bread.
