Tonight is the night — we’ll be celebrating Butterstick’s one-year of cuteness at Chief Ike’s Mambo Room in Adams Morgan, 1725 Columbia Road, NW. And in his honor, we’ve gotten some good drink specials lined up — $5 Captain Morgan drinks, $4 Paulaner Hefeweizen’s, and $3 Pabst drafts. From what the zoo folks tell us, Butterstick loves his Pabst. There will also be some good music on both floors. And yes, we do have a…
We here at DCist love happy hours. After all, we’ve thrown a few ourselves (at The Reef, Big Hunt, Biddy Mulligan’s, and Chief Ike’s Mambo Room), and we try to emerge from behind our computers now and then to attend those put on by fellow bloggers, residents, and activists. Today DC Vote, the organization that has single-mindedly championed District voting rights since 1998, is sponsoring the first of what are to become monthly happy hours….
We’d like to thank everyone who showed up last night to the DCist Cinco de Mayo party at Chief Ike’s Mambo Room, especially to those on the dance floor who kept the party going on well past midnight. You know that when the bartending staff had to pull out extra cases of Corona (only to run out later), we not only went beyond our crowd predictions, we were also doing our part to drive…
Today might be a slow day at work (no loss — it may rain, and just in time for what looks to be a great weekend). After all, we here at DCist expect that everyone celebrated the Cinco de Mayo in style. How else could you recognize Mexico’s 1862 victory over the hated French than with copious amounts of Mexican-themed drinks? Whether or not you joined DCist at our own Cinco de Mayo happy hour…
May 5 is always an important holiday. It’s where we celebrate Mexico’s 1862 victory at Puebla over the French. And this year, it’s technically 05/05/05. So there’s even more reason to remember Benito Juarez and the Mexican battlefield win. So why not do it with DCist? Remember, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Amigos don’t let Amigos Drive Drunk. You can take the 42 bus. Where: Chief Ike’s Mambo Room, Columbia Road, Adams…
What do the Bush twins and George Stephanopolis have in common? A man named Chief Ike. A DCist source tells us he ran into the Bush twins in Adams Morgan last weekend. Which makes DCist ask, whaa, Adams Morgan? It seems that Jenna and Barbara may be straying from their normal stomping grounds on Wisconsin Avenue (Smith Point, and to a lesser extent, Bourbon), or may be growing more comfortable patronizing establishements east of Rock…
