Pop-Up Natural Wine Bar: Off the Beaten Path, Italy
Meet us at Crane & Turtle for a special evening to enjoy unique and rare Italian natural wines. From 5pm to close on Wednesday April 27th, we’ll have our pop-up wine bar and the patio open with delicious artisanal wines imported to DC for the first time! All wines are the product of the work and love of family wineries who wish to express terroir through minimal intrusion.
The wines:
+ Caneva da Nani: An artisanal ‘Col Fondo” Prosecco produced by a family in the heart of Veneto
+ Furlani: a high altitude biodynamic sparkling red from the Dolomites
+ Paterna: a Tuscan white produced by a small group of families practicing organic polyculture
+ Guglierame: a complex and deep rosé respecting the traditions of the local Ormeasco grape in the mountains of Liguria
+ Collecapretta and Vigneti Campanino: two different iterations of the Sangiovese grape from the secluded but fascinating region of Umbria
These natural wines, imported into Washington, D.C. for the first time, will be available by the glass, or as a flight, paired with delicious snacks. Come join us for this unexpected wine tour of Italy in Petworth!
Hosted by Guillaume Bouscavel & Angelina Dirina
No reservations needed.

Sake akachōchin / Bar Otsukare
Expanding on our exploration of all things Japanese drinking culture, Bar Otsukare presents Sake akachōchin on April 30th and May 1 from 5pm – midnight.
Small, intimate, lively, casual, bar vibe — Sake akachōchin is inspired by sake bars in NYC and Japan — sometimes tiny establishments where dozens of sakes are served in the most unpretentious and unassuming way possible.
Hosted by Jesse Selvagn & Eddie Kim
No reservations needed.”

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.
You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.
It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
