Avgolemono soup
Greek Deli (address and info)
Farragut North
Did someone break your heart? Are you battling a flu so bad you’ve drawn up a living will? Sports team got you down? Greek Deli’s avgolemono soup will fix it for $4.50 (way cheaper than an eHarmony membership, trip to the doctor, or buying a new team’s jersey). Greek Chef Kostas Fostieris builds so much flavor from seemingly simple ingredients: celery, carrots, and onions, chicken, orzo, eggs, fresh lemon juice, and corn starch.
4 Meat Grinder
Stachowski Market (address and info)
Georgetown
Though not advertised as an eating contest, this sandwich the size of a bear cub should come with a reward for finishing it. Stachowski Market builds layers of salami, coppa, mortadella, soppressata, and provolone cheese before topping the meat pile with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, hot peppers, and house vinaigrette
