FOOD/BOOZE WEEK! Friendship Raffles and Fur Boa Crotch
The Chocolate Lovers Festival is happening this weekend, Feb. 7-8, in locations all over Fairfax. The events sound lame — a “friendship raffle,” a Kiwanis Pancake Breakfast, and something called “Scouts and Crafts” — but the concept of free chocolate completely overshadows embarrassment. Sexy Food Network celebrity chef and CakeLove Warren Brown will be at the Chocolate Challenge as guest judge. [Chocolate Festival]

Everybody knows that anything called a “lounge” in DC is a stomping ground for trashy girls with fried hair and toolbags in Affliction shirts. But you might have to make an exception for Lux’s Level Fridays: there’s a two-hour open vodka bar, $3 Miller Lites, and the chance to win VIP table service. Sign up here. Fridays, 9-11PM. [Lux]
Weekly: Eat Sunday brunch with a fat man in heels at Perry’s Drag Queen Brunch in Adams Morgan. For $22.95, you get a buffet-style brunch, mimosas and perhaps a fur boa swathed across your crotch. The line to get in starts at 10:30 AM, and it’s first come, first served. [Perry's]
New: Ben’s Chili Bowl, DC’s biggest attention whore, has opened up a new restaurant, Ben’s Next Door, which is located literally right next door. It’s comfort food on fancy plates, with hand-cut instead of frozen fries, but you can still order the chili half smokes from Ben’s Chili Bowl right to your table. Unfortunately, Next Door is just as packed. [Daily Candy]
Japanese fusion restaurant Sei is now open, so make sure you drop by and chow down on their small plate creations of sushi “tacos” and “fish and chips.” [Washington Post]

YIKES. What is that weird thing pictured above, center?
On the other hand, above, left: Jane Austen, nice rack!
Is Taco Bell having any events this week?
The TEETH…they will not leave me alone…my iPhone says to order more Chili and guns…lots of guns.
AHHHHH!!!!! Someone stop the Teeth Demons!
I don’t mean to be catty, but Rudy Guiliani has really put on weight, hasn’t s/he?
Lascauxcaveman: Yes, I noticed that, too. Who knew?
So am I the only one here who thinks that “Mexican sushi” sounds like the punchline to Lou Dobbs’ favorite dirty joke?
dennymcden: So hard to advertise to sarcastic snark fans. It’s not a natural focus group.
Kiwanis Pancake Breakfast festivals are great for picking up women. I don’t know that from personal experience, I just heard it from a friend of a friend.
Haha. I didn’t notice the teeth monsterz until they were dragging my by my pant cuffs toward the ‘Google Home Offices.’
Colander: NO! All the Taco Bells in the area are being demolished! Both the Clarendon location and the Gallows Rd. & Lee Hwy location.
NEW! Ben’s Back Door…for all your “alternative lifestyle” friends!
…at least that’s what The Teeth told me…
rmontcal: who needs “chocolate” “events” when there is rubble to sift through for Free! tacos?
Chocolate scouts and crafts….mmmm….better than lobbyist soup…
However, Ben’s Next Door is figuratively Across the Universe from Ben’s Chili Bowl.
Who is this Malaka Gharib person? Has Wonkette been infiltrated by people with foreign names? OH NOEZ.
We need to keep that queen out of Ben’s.
Nice picture of Darragh Murphy.
” …trashy girls with fried hair…”
Geeze! There you go again, getting me all hot. Last time it was just roller derby girls.
Wow. When Cheney comes out, he really comes out!
rmontcal: Aw hell, you’re right! I suppose all that leaves are Italian Store slices — all the calories of a couple burritos, and it’s just as cheap. (Obvious problem is that it doesn’t lend itself as easily to Lou Dobbs jokes, unless he’s recently developed something against the Apennine Peninsula, too.)
Is that Joe the Plumber speaking at the GOP strategy meeting?
I knew I shouldn’t have slept in.
Is that a cross dresser or a trans-sexual !
either way, I’m not embarrassed to say that
I’m getting one hell of a CHUBBY looking
at that CHUBBY WUBBY !!!
