“Literary Cocktails at The Gibson’s upstairs bar begins Friday, February 7 with founder, Chantal Tseng.”


2009 14th Street, NW

From an email:

“Literary Cocktails, a popular weekly staple at the Reading Room of Petworth Citizen, is coming to The Gibson, the beloved speakeasy and cocktail bar located on 14thStreet to the left of Marvin, in lieu of Petworth Citizen’s unfortunate closing. Literary Cocktails at The Gibson’s upstairs bar begins Friday, February 7 with founder, Chantal Tseng.

Literary Cocktails is a weekly changing cocktail program where Tseng chooses a book to read during the week that then inspires the drinks on the menu. The literary drinks are featured alongside a short list of curated natural wines, champagne, sherry and teas. Tseng will continue to announce her book muse on her Instagram page (@shinobipaws) and serve her book inspired cocktails Fridays & Saturdays from 6pm-midnight (unless otherwise noted on social media) in the upstairs bar of the Gibson. Separately on Thursdays, Tseng will also host her Wine Bar nights which include a changing selection of natural wine and sherry in the same upstairs bar. No reservations need.”

We’re about a month out from summer. That means you’ve still got time for spring cleaning!

Lexi Grant, an operations manager at Well-Paid Maids, shared her go-to spring cleaning tips with WTOP News. Step one? Declutter. Get rid of items you don’t use, find space for items that need a home and organize those areas.

Then, it’s time to dust. Lexi starts with high-touch surface areas (think: refrigerator, dishwasher, counters, microwave). One area she sees often neglected is the bedroom — and it makes sense. Heavy furniture is difficult to move around, but it’s important to really get in there so dust doesn’t affect your sleep.
