The weekend is thunderous.
FREE FLIGHTS
Summer Happy Hour at the Foundry
To commemorate a new summer menu on the back patio (the burger's got tamarind caramelized onions and
pineapple-bacon relish), there's a new happy hour…at the lounge inside. The indoor incentive: a free
booze flight to start, then half-off drinks after that. Sunlight's overrated, anyway.

Lingerie Sale at Coco de Mer
Come Saturday, your favorite upscale Melrose underthings emporium is addressing summer the only way it knows
how—by taking 75 percent off some sultry lingerie. Taking off that last 25 percent is your
responsibility.

SMOKIN'
Cigar Lounge at LA Winefest
You've seen your share of studio-lot wine tastings, but this one has a covert cigar lounge—where a pro
will hand-roll your Cuban seed tobacco for $5 a pop. And speaking of pop…wouldn't be a terrible idea
to stock up for Father's Day.

SUDSING UP
Burgers and Beer Night at Rustic Canyon
From now on, Monday isn't just the day you trudge back to work. Monday's the day you taste that week's
Rustic Canyon burger specialty—maybe with wild mushroom ragu and Crescenza, or maybe with tomato,
burrata and confit bacon—and a choice cold brew. Suddenly, Mondays are almost bearable.

TESTING, 1, 2
Test-Kitchen Tuesdays at Corkbar
They're in the mood to try new things at Corkbar,
so in exchange for your insightful criticism on shrimp tacos or stuffed skate wing, they'll only charge you
$2 a plate. Throw in enough wine, and you'll be trying out some other new things later.
