My column this Wednesday is about Sicily’s hot, juicy red wine, Nero d’Avola. If you don’t have any dinner plans tonight, the best Nero d’Avola pairing in town happens on Monday nights at Calamity Jane’s in Georgetown…All You Can Eat Spaghetti, for $7.54. Add meatballs for $1.14 each (pork AND beef, so tender!), and a bottle of Villa Tonino Nero d’Avola for an extra $15. Now that’s Italian, but Calamity Jane’s doesn’t just offer tongue-in-cheek kitsch food. This place specializes in regional, roadside standbys, including that homey, endangered concept: the nightly dinner special. Those of us from the Midwest are suckers for theme nights at the family tavern. Pop in here on a Monday, Wednesday (meatloaf) or Friday (NY steak), and you will be too.
