IT TAKES TWO:  Let's face it, nobody wants to cook on a Monday night.  And besides, you've probably spent the weekend blowing all your money on that special someone.  So what are you to do?  Tango in Glastonbury has your answer with a prix fixe dinner.  For just $22.95 you can enjoy the restaurant's Italian fare, cooked with an Argentinian flair. 

CATCH OF THE DAY:  You can enjoy a great lobster dinner tonight, and help out a great cause at the same time.  There's a benefit tonight for Animal Haven, a center dedicated to helping homeless pets. Head to the Westbrook Lobster House in Wallingford (reservations required) and tell your server that you want to support Animal Haven.  Fifteen percent of the night's sales will go to the shelter.  5:30-9:00PM.

WHO WANTS TO SEE A MILLIONAIRE?:  Now that you've had dinner, it's time for the movie.  Last year's uber-hit Slumdog Millionaire is playing at Levitt Pavilion in WestportDanny Boyle's Oscar-winning movie tells the story of an Indian teen who grows up in the slums, becomes a contestant on the Indian version of "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?," and is arrested on suspicion of cheating.  No need to be an actual millionaire to see the flick, it's FREE.  8:30PM.
