If you haven’t checked out Artomatic yet, I feel sorry for you! But there are still two weeks left so it’s cool. Here’s the scene on the ground floor from opening night — great local music and no shortage of graffiti on the walls either.
On a somewhat related but unrelated note, there is one of those On the Fly carts that is always parked outside the Artomatic building, and we finally tried it the other night on the way in… there are a couple of them in DC now and I’m always reading good reviews of them. For $2, I figured it was worth seeing what the taco hype was all about. I have to say that the chicken taco I got was downright gross because of this cold coleslaw stuff they put on top of it. And also, while I understand the convenience factor, $3 was a little much for the Diet Coke I was craving to clear my mouth afterwards. How can they charge more for that than the actual taco??
Maybe I missed the point. I will have to give them one more chance, since I do like everything else about their concept of sustainability through cheap food from a cart. And the masses of other foodies reporting online seem to dig the On The Fly grub. Guess it was an off night for me…
