Join us for Galentines Day/ pre Lunar New Year get together at one of DCs hottest new restaurants! We’ll be convening in their bar area known as the ‘lucky bar’ (just look for Chrystalle). And they’re extending their happy hour for our group until 8pm. AND the first dozen attendees will get a special Lunar New Year treat. 😏 They boast an elevated Chinese American menu, the only public Mahjong bar in DC, and have recently been receiving some well deserved flowers from publications like EaterDC & The Washingtonian. Their beer menu may be smaller, but it is *nothing* to sneeze at either (thoughtfully curated by our friend Alyssa). Closest metro stop is Archives- Navy Memorial, just a block away. We really hope you can join us for this one because it’s gonna be a good one! 🍻 Hope to see ya!

Happy Vegan-tine's Day! The holiday where we share our love of veganism with each other. No one should be alone on Vegan-tine's Day, and we hope you will join us for a vegan meal at St Veg. Please feel free to come and hang out, dine with us, or just come to enjoy some candy. I will bring some sweet treats to share, and people are welcome to bring Valentine's as well. If you do bring in something, please make sure it is vegan. Looking forward to celebrating this Rockville Vegans invented holiday with you all!
