Delicious Deal: Zaytinya
The deal: For $7, grab some slices of spit-roasted lamb, fresh pita, tzatziki and pickled onions for lunch on Zaytinya's patio, through April 17.
The deets: Chef Mike Isabella is spit-roasting lamb as part of Zaytinya's two-week Greek Easter Festival. The lamb lunch deal is available on the patio from noon to 2:30 p.m. weekdays through April 17. You can take it to-go or have a seat at tables on the patio. Offal fans will want to stay for a full meal — Metrocurean got to sample a few of Isabella's creations that are showcasing the whole lamb, including delicious squash blossoms stuffed with lamb sweetbreads and lamb heart mixed with bulgur, mint and yogurt.
Also, look for Isabella this Sunday, April 11, at the Dupont Circle FreshFarm Market. At 11 a.m., the chef will be doing a cooking demo and offering up samples of Zaytinya's Easter specials.
