Welcome to BYT’s newest “hot damn, how could I live without this” column, Eating Out. We’ll be highlighting one food or booze special event every night of the week. From the best happy hours in the city to the uber expensive $500 per person tasting menus, there is something good to eat or drink every single night in this city and we want to help you find it. And yes, we get the joke.
National Margarita Day @ El Tamarindo
It’s national margarita day! Go celebrate at El Tamarindo. The restaurant is offering deals like $15 for a pitcher, $5 specialty margarita deals, and more importantly, $2.22 basic margaritas. At a price that reasonable, you can’t afford not to buy them.
District Distilling Co. Rum Fest @ District Distilling Co.
If you’re in the mood for local rum and reggae beats, swing by District Distilling Co. on Thursday night. The distillery will be hosting a Rum Fest with booze from local distilleries like Cotton & Reed, Lost Ark Distilling Company, and more. The best part? Admission is free!
Gouden Carlous Cuvee Van Keizer Blauw Day @ ChurchkeyÂ
Each year on February 24, brewers at Churchkey whip up a limited batch of Gouden Carlous Cuvee Van Keizer Blauw (say that three times fast while you’re drunk) in honor of Charles V’s birthday.
DC Distillers Fest @ Long View Gallery
Feel like you’re in a speakeasy at Long View Gallery this weekend. The gallery will be hosting the DC Distillers Fest and throwing a Gatsby-like party to capture that speakeasy vibe.
Mardi Gras FUNK Brunch @ Black JackÂ
You don’t have to be in New Orleans to celebrate Mardi Gras. Black Jack will have all you can eat brunch and all you can drink specials. Top it all of by listening to the tunes of D.C. based band Black Masala playing in the lounge.
Your week looks delicious.
