Dirty Habit may be going for an “apocalyptic vibe” when it opens in Penn Quarter, but they’re launching with a friendly deal: free food and drinks.
The designed-to-be-edgy restaurant and bar will host a free preview on Friday, September 9 for the first 60 guests who RSVP. Construction isn’t finished on the Hotel Monaco space–formerly Poste–so they’re taking over Union Market’s Lab 1270 for the event. Chef Kyoo Eom is in charge of the food, while newly-appointed sommelier Sarah Ruiz mixes cocktails (he’s coming from Poste, she from San Francisco).
If there’s ever a time to try a concept that bills itself as “pleasantly uncomfortable,” it’s now. Email DirtyHabitPreview@gmail.com for availability.
