And so it begins. Not even noon and Young & Hungry already receives its first notification of hurricane-themed specials at a D.C. watering hole.
I’ll be updating these as they arrive in ye olde inbox throughout the day. So check back often.
But give it up for Bar Dupont, the first venue to alert us to its natural-disaster promotion. On Sunday, enjoy a classic hurricane, dark and stormy, or “Intense Irene” cocktail (vodka, peach schnapps, blue curacao, and sour mix) for $5 a pop.
