  • Women & Whisky

    What's not to like?  In honor of International Women's Day, my latest tweetup focuses on Women & Whisky.  Joined again by LUPEC NYC (Ladies United for the Preservation of Endangered Cocktails), Compass Box, and Astor Center, we've put together quite an event.

    Invite 
    $5 of each ticket will be donated to Dress for Success, which promotes the economic independence of disadvantaged women by providing professional attire, a network of support and career development tools.  Also, we've got 10 LUPEC ladies from the likes of Rye House, Pegu Club, Momofuku, Raines Law Room, Hearth, Bar Celona, Freeman's, Drinks at 6, and Hush Cocktails behind the stick, creating winter warmer cocktails with Compass Box whiskys.

    Hope to see you at Astor Center next Monday 3/8 on International Women's Day — men and women are welcome — and be sure to buy your ticket in advance!

    See you on Monday, and spread the word!

  • Dear Internet

    Dear Internet,

    I'm hoping you can help me.  I did something stupid.  I was trying to be helpful — really, I was.  We had a large group hoping to eat at Momofuku Ssam Bar this week so I jumped online and made a reservation for the bo ssam.  I was thrilled to see the green checkmarks and grabbed a 6:30 reservation for our group of 8.  Thrilled, that is, until much later last night (after the 24 hour cancellation cutoff) when I realized that I had made the reservation for Wednesday instead of Thursday, once again proving that three years of law school does not make you smart.

    Can you help me find someone with a group of friends who wants to gorge on some pork-o-licious bo ssam TONIGHT at 6:30? If so, please email me. Who can resist this? Thanks much.

    Love, Laren

    PS — UPDATE: Am now just looking for dining companions — keeping the reservation!  Let me know! xoxo
