Bobby’s Burger Palace opens at Potomac Mills Mall on Tuesday 21 May.

Owned by Food Network star and celebrity chef, Bobby Flay, Bobby’s Burger Palace has 15 locations around the country including Washington, DC. But this will be his first restaurant in Virginia.

Bobby Flay will be there at the opening of the restaurant at noon.

There are 10 types of signature burgers along with fries, onion rings and a couple of sandwiches and salads to choose from on the menu. Bobby Flay’s favorite dish is a cheeseburger and his favorite type has potato chips on top which is on the menu. Everything on the menu is very reasonably priced!

Expect a crowd, but there is plenty of parking. Bobby’s Burger Palace is located on the south side of the Mall by the AMC Theaters and the other new restaurants, Cheesecake Factory and Bahama Breeze.

Potomac Mills is Virginia’s largest outlet mall and features an indoor shopping opportunity with over 200 stores.

While there you can also do some great shopping at such stores as Bloomingdale’s, Carters, Coach Factory, Gap Outlet, H&M and the new JC Penney. Also check out the new additions to the mall Bailey Banks & Biddle, Chico’s Outlet, True Religion and Talbot’s outlet! Make sure you ask the cashier when you check out to see if they offer a Military discount.

This weekend is the 22nd Annual Northern Virginia Fine Arts Festival at the Reston Town Center. The Festival runs until 6pm today and from 10am to 4pm on Sunday and will be based along Market Street in the Center.

Admission is free. However for a voluntary donation of $10 to GreaterRestonArtsCenter (GRACE) at the event’s colorful ArtCarts, visitors will receive a $10 gift certificate to dine at participating Reston Town Center restaurants. Donation proceeds benefit year round educational and outreach programs produced by GRACE throughout the Northern Virginia area.

When you come out here you will find hand crafted, one of a kind artwork, contemporary and original performances, artist demonstrations, acclaimed children’s activities, and live music. Over 200 master artisans in 16 different categories, including Ceramics, Digital and Multi-Media Art, Drawing, Fiber/Textiles, Furniture, Glass, Jewelry, Leather, Metal, Mixed Media 2D, Mixed Media 3D, Painting, Photography, Printmaking, Sculpture, and Wood will be presented.

Children can make their own art at the Children’s Art Tent which is part of the Family Art Park. They can create their very own Dancing Dragon or a Fish Fan. While wearing an art glove, children will use their own creativity and vision to decorate the glove with intricate designs and patterns using markers to replicate the Mehndi process without staining their skin. The Teen Tent will highlight the art of henna tattoos and its history in ancient India.

Parking is free.

The Reston Town Center is about a 45 minute drive from the Quantico area. The outdoor venue offers more than 50 retail shops, 30 restaurants and a multi-screen movie theater.
