Don't miss DC Restaurant Week through August 19, 2012!
Summer Picnic Series:
About a year ago, Hosan Lee
came to Washington, DC to design and launch Number 68 Project, a
creative social experiment that used the dinner party as a vehicle to
bring people together and get beyond the chit chat. These sold-out
dinners caught the attention of The New York Times,
the Post, Eater, the influential global trend forecaster PSFK, and
others. From that test, she is now organizing a 9-week Summer Picnic
Series to
launch her new company, TableTribes. Every Sunday evening through August 26, internationally renowned thought leaders and DC's top chefs and mixologists
will share their unique insights on a different topic concerning the
collective human experience. Invitations to the Series are issued based
on an application,
with hard-hitting questions like how one's life might taste as a pie.
The application is meant to be fun (clearly) and the event is not meant
to be "exclusive"--the idea is to get a group of interesting and
interested people together each Sunday for awesome unfussy food on
blankets and spirited conversation.
Cuba Libre Restaurant, located at 801 9th Street, NW, is celebrating National
Rum Day, Thursday, August 16th, by offering a 50% discount
on all rum and rum-based cocktails during “Caippy Hour” from 4:30 PM-6:30 PM
in
the 50-seat bar/lounge.
Cheese Class: Spend an evening with The Cheese Course at
Seasonal Pantry in an intimate class discovering and savoring seasonal,
artisanal cheeses. We’ll explore the world of cheese pairing by tasting 6
cheeses and 3 craft beers along with housemade accompaniments by
Seasonal Pantry's Dan O'Brien. Fromager Carolyn Stromberg will delve
into the story behind each cheese, as well as give practical advice
about selecting, serving, pairing, and more. Class is $49 and each is limited to 12 participants. 8/20 and 8/27 at 7 p.m.
