On this episode of Arlington Eats, host Jeremy Thomas takes you to the heart of the Entertainment District where both Loews hotels are sauteing your hearts this holiday season.
“Cut & Bourbon is located in the Live by Loews Hotel in Arlington,” We're mostly known for our high-quality beef that we get in, it's all prime beef. It's sourced from Texas. And then we also have beef sourced from Japan.”
And this holiday season, Cut & Bourbon Executive Chef Robert Carr and his team are steaking a claim to your heart with their feast.
“Christmas Eve, we are going to do a roasted Prime Rib, a very traditional, for Christmas time,” Carr said. “And then for Christmas Day, we're doing a traditional beef Wellington. It’s a classic for Christmas time. It's kind of like comfort food.”
The meals are available for the public and not just guests of the hotels, but if you are an overnight guest, you’ll have a sweet time.
“We're doing Santa cookies and doing a cookie box for a turndown amenity for every guest in the hotel,” he said.
And that’s not all you can enjoy. Take the skybridge next door to the new, iconic Loews Arlington Hotel and Convention Center and right off of the main lobby, you’ll find Farena.
“Our Christmas Eve special will be a whole roasted branzino. And then for our Christmas Day special, we'll be doing a fennel and herb crusted osso buco, with some Jupiter grits and some other accompaniments as well. in addition, we wanted to feature something in our bar because we know that our bar also sees a lot of attention. So we went with a cider roasted ham special for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. We're doing that, you know, with a little bit of a flair by keeping it very simple with a raspberry gastrique and some, palm puree."
Farena Executive Chef Tony France says that’s in additional to their continental breakfast buffet and a la carte menu items for dinner.
“Farena focuses on the simplicity of Italian cuisine, right? Farena at its core means wheat. So, we want wheat is such a complex, simple ingredient that is featured in so many, cultures across the, across the world.”
The selections are Farena are also available to the public.
“We have such a responsibility to ensure that we deliver an amazing experience for all of our diners and all of our traveling guests. Right. We don't know, you know, may be a local customer and maybe a traveling, customer as well, but we have an obligation to give the best possible holiday experience, because sometimes people aren't with their families.”
