Kiwi Experience in Arlington, VA

This past weekend I had a delightful brunch in a Kiwi Cafe, Cassatt's, just outside of Washington, DC. Back in New Zealand, I was most fond of their coffees, fried eggs on burgers, and fish and chips. Luckily, you can get all of that at Cassatt's-- and you don't even have to pay 15 cents for each packet of tomato sauce!

Geoff, my boyfriend & Australian souvenir, was excited since Kiwis live kind of close to Oz, and over on this side of the world he'll take what he can get. I was pumped for a new find near to the Orange Line.

Our waiter didn't have an accent, but that's forgivable since he was pleasant enough. The food was fantastic. Delicious not-too-sweet french toast, the Big Kiwi Breakfast (eggs, hash browns, sausage, bacon, mushrooms, tomato and fruit all inclusive), and a Medium sized latte in what could be considered a cereal bowl! I cannot wait to go back for dinner.

In addition to wonderful, inexpensive food, Cassatt's hosts Arlington Artists Alliance classes in it's basement. The restaurant's wall decorations rotate monthly, in the form of Artist Alliance exhibits. I definitely recommend trying a bit of the Kiwi life in this quaint Arlington locale!
