Wine-O Wednesday

It only seems fitting that  hump day and wine night are one in the same. Last week I stumbled into a great Wednesday Night Wine Special in Arlington, VA. 

Piola, located on Wilson Boulevard serves $1.99 glasses of Pino Grigio (my personal favorite) and Cabernet with the purchase of a meal after 6pm. ( Yes, after 6pm which is perfect for those of us that are usually stuck in the office until 6pm and beyond.) Meal options include over 35 authentic pizzas, pasta, fresh salads and Italian specialty dishes. I chose the Arlington Pizza- whole wheat crust with sauteed mushrooms, garlic and black pitted olives topped with arugula and cherry tomatoes and the  Calvino Salad- a steak salad with walnuts, Gorgonzola cheese, cherry tomatoes, onions, and mixed sweet peppers in a red wine vinaigrette.  The food was delicious and my wine complimented it wonderfully. Don't miss out on a delicious meal at a great price. 

* Fun Fact: Piola is an international restaurant! They have several restaurants in 11 different countries! Give this place a try, it won't disappoint!
