Given we had one vote for the Blue Line, Thai Select seems like the best of those options. But I am okay with any of them. Rooftop Bar looks to have the best cocktail options.

How about we meet at Arlington Rooftop Bar to start? Looks like their happy hour goes from 3 pm to 7 pm. Would be easy enough to depart from there and head over to Thai Select post 7 pm.

I'll be at the Crystal Gateway Marriott and will take the Metro from there.

I'll be dropping off my rental car at DCA (probably 1600-1615) so can meet landside thereafter

Just goes to show that you can't always trust the DC happy hour website...

Lets kick things off at 5 pm

Just heading out from the CG Marriott - Google indicates about 30 minutes to get there from here. Wondering if a rooftop is a safe place to be for tonight...

See folks there.

I guess I could have braved the elements to join y’all, since the inbound jet for my 1735 flight diverted to PHL … just blocked in here a few minutes ago, and is showing a 2010 departure

I'm living in Japan for a year, but great to see this thread is being revived! Hope to make an event next year. Wishing the entire DC FT crowd my best.

Meeting GrjApp and gvdIAD at 6pm this Wednesday at The Freshman: https://g.page/thefreshmanva?share

Currently have a patio reservation for up to 6 pax if anyone wants to join us!

Don't know if they're doing anything special for Restaurant Week.

I should be able to make this as well. FWIW, The Freshman's site doesn't list anything Restaurant Week-related; the happy hour menu looks promising, even if it doesn't actually list a timeframe for said happy hour(s).
