GRAPPA-LING
Half Off the Entire Bar at Bar 888
Tell your server you'll follow them on Twitter (the
bar, not the server), and they'll slash your bar bill in half—so go ahead and run through their
legendary selection of grappa (topping out at 120) and grappa-based cocktails like the Italian
Mojito. Bites like grilled cheese and short ribs are included in the mix. Because nothing compliments
grappa like melted cheese.

FILM FEAST
Triple Feature With Booze and Snacks at 15 Romolo
Bringing back movie night on the last Sunday of every month, 15 Romolo's screening a trio of dark comedies:
Fargo, Grosse Point Blank and In Bruges. They're also doing food and cocktail pairings for
each movie—though you might want to wait to order your sloppy joe until after the wood chipper scene
in Fargo.

BACON BITS
All-You-Can-Eat Pork at Cochon 555
We're no mathematicians. But when you have five heritage pigs prepared by five chefs—from French
Laundry, Meadowood and Namu—paired with five wineries pouring their best vino, we know you're in for a
gluttonous afternoon. It's the rule of fives.

HAPPY HOURING
Reverse Happy Hour at the Ambassador

from there—after all, you've got all night.
