Happy Monday: B. Smith (DC)

Sitting outside between the hours of 10 am until 5 pm on any given day of the week is less than appealing right now in the District. Hot, hot and more hot. The weather is what we all wished for after such a tough winter...be careful what you wish for... Don't get me wrong, I love the summer, especially a DC or NY summer but this heat is intense. B. Smith has caught the hint by offering up their patio space for patrons from 4 pm-9 pm on Saturdays this summer. The Union Station restaurant will offer food and drink specials with featured dishes including gazpacho, blackened shrimp and lobster cocktail. The only catch to the outdoor enjoyment is guests have to make a reservation (*Call (202) 289-6188 or get more info here). Saturday afternoons are the perfect time to unwind and catch a nice breeze while taking in some of the District scene. With the Fourth of July looming, now would be a good time to get those outdoors plans together...fireworks anyone??
