From a press release:
“Restaurant Association Metropolitan Washington (RAMW) announces the return of one of the region’s most spirited events – DC Cocktail Week, when Washington restaurants showcase their best sips to diners. Kicking off on Monday, November 14 and running through Sunday, November 20, guests will be able to enjoy specially crafted cocktails paired with delicious bites at participating restaurants and bars in the Metropolitan Washington area.
Diners can enjoy DC Cocktail Week at hot spots featured on the city’s inaugural Michelin Guide 2016 Bib Gourmand list, like Kyirisan in Shaw and the Atlas District’s Maketto, which was also named as the RAMMYS 2016 New Restaurant of the Year. Other participating restaurants represented on the 2016 Bib Gourmand list include China Chilcano, Oyamel and Zaytinya, mainstay favorites in Washington’s energetic Penn Quarter.
Restaurants participating in DC Cocktail Week for the first time include: newly opened Aperto in Foggy Bottom; EatBar on Barrack’s Row; The Heights in Columbia Heights; Quarter+Glory, Tilt Side Bar and Radiator in the 14th St. Corridor; Maggiano’s Little Italy in Chevy Chase, MD; McClellan’s Retreat, Iron Gate, and Nazca Mochica in Dupont Circle; 14K Restaurant, Brick & Mortar, Ocean Prime and The Partisan in Downtown Washington; Homestead and Twisted Horn in Petworth; Whaley’s on the Capitol Waterfront; and Clarity in Vienna, VA.
Guests seeking a more in-depth cocktail pairing experience during the week can visit One Eight Distilling, and enjoy cocktails paired with a thoughtfully curated menu by Well Fed Hospitality Group’s Matt Baker and Kieran Lahman of Mindful Restaurant Group.
DC Cocktail Week was made possible with the sponsorship of the Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility, Mountain Valley Spring Water and One Eight Distilling.”

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!
The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!
What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
