Cassatt's in Arlington (Kiwi Cuisine)

Recommended Posts

It is a New Zealand style cafe on Lee highway, in the strip mall with Arrowine.

I had my first New Zealand style latte, which was really good. Rich, and I didn't feel the need to add sugar.

I need to go on a Monday Night (NZ night) and try some of the actual food. Oh, and i need to try a meat pie.

Any ordering recommendations for this place?

I'm not sure I've ever seen the words "New Zealand" and "style" used in the same sentence before! As for the lattes, let me guess, they don't use a machine but instead give it to a giant Maori rugby player who performs a vigorous Haka until it's blended to your satisfaction? Do you have an address for this place, as I'm seriously intrigued? Antipodean cooking seems to be busting out all over these days, though this sounds like a more modest operation than the latest NY outpost.

4536 Lee Highway. 703 527-3330.

Monday Nights is New Zealand night, if you want NZ dinner.

Its in a stripmall with a good wine/cheese store, and a good french Bakery (Pastries by Randolf), and is a block form Lebanese Taverna Market, so you can check other things out while in the area. Oh, and its maybe a mile and a half or so down lee highway from The Italian Store...which has italian groceries, and great Philly style sandwiches ansd NY style pizza. The italian storee was listed a couple of times in our recent Best Of Arlingotn post. :)
