Save that squashed sammich for another day. If you're downtown today, stick your lunch bag in the office fridge and get outside for Taste of Eleven at the Verizon Center (601 F St. NW), from noon-2 p.m.
Proceeds from the event will benefit the Capital Area Food Bank.
More than 30 local restaurants each feature a signature lunch item. Your ticket (a mere $11, hardly more than you'd shell out at a SizzEx) grants you up to six samples.
