The Perfect Dinner

We started our vacation today to Virginia!  We flew into DC and got in around dinner time.  We were staying in a hotel near the airport and picking up our rental car tomorrow.  Since we had no car, we had a tired toddler, and we were all hungry, it worked out perfect that there was a restaurant in our hotel!

Buffalo Chicken Salad
Comfort Inn
Arlington, VA

We're not talking the Ritz Carleton here, this was a Comfort Inn.  So, as you can imagine, it wasn't really a five star restaurant.  I went in with really low expectations and was pleasantly surprised.  The food was pretty good and the convenience couldn't be beat!

Grades:

Megan - A (This salad was pretty tasty.  I was able to get it with grilled chicken to be a little healthier, and since the chicken had lots of buffalo sauce on it, I didn't even have to use any additional salad dressing.  Comfort Inn for the win!

Noelle - A (Noelle had quesadillas which are quickly becoming her new favorite food.  I was nervous about ordering these for her because they came on a spinach tortilla and I thought she might be turned off by the green color.  I warned her when she ordered that they were going to be green [I told her that's just how they make quesadillas in Virginia] and she still wanted them.  She was not worried about the green color at all.  She loved them and ate a lot!  Doug and I tried some of hers too because it was a huge serving, and I have to say, they were pretty delicious!)
