The weekend accepts your nomination.
Football season’s here. Good thing Perks is getting you 30% off the world’s best beef jerky. Also, meet your new liquor cabinet: an exclusive vintage bar cart. Finally, we got you VIP tickets to the Breeders’ Cup... putting you just by the finish line. Life is good with Perks...
For Fashion’s Night Out, the haberdashers at Streets of Georgetown are setting you up with beer from Lost Rhino, mini steak sandwiches from Morton’s and a raffle that could get you a custom-made suit or dinner for two. Oh, and 30% off the entire store. It’s like three pinstripes for the price of two.
After a summer of road trips, it’s time to settle into... an autumn of more road trips. Especially when there are hot tubs at the end of the road. Like at this series of Virginia cabins in the Blue Ridge foothills, each sporting a whirlpool tub. Just get out every now and then so you don’t pickle.
Thomas Jefferson: big french-fry guy, it turns out. No, really, he talked about them in his papers. For the 150th birthday of the $2 bill, the Jefferson’s hotel bar is serving up fries inspired by TJ’s recipe for two bucks. Which ought to make that $15 rum cocktail go down a little easier.
The gents from Hugh & Crye are taking over the Occidental’s Truman Bar on Saturday to show off their new shirts and jackets. Your ticket also gets you a cocktail, plus appetizers like truffled deviled eggs and short rib grilled cheese. Now get in there and give ’em hell.
Music film festivals: good. Music film festivals at bars: better. This month, Wisdom is showing music flicks every Sunday. Your feature this week: This Is Spinal Tap. Your drink: a Jameson and a Natty Boh for eight bucks. No word on a cameo from a too-small Stonehenge.
