Nothing beats the holidays... especially in February. Best of all, these holidays require no gifts - unless you count unlimited tapas at one of DC's best restaurants a gift (I do!) Boqueria DC is hosting three special (very distinctive) promotions for President's Day, Fat Tuesday and the Academy Awards; so all that's left to do, is decide which one(s) to attend. Can't decide? Why not go to all three?
President's Day Unlimited Brunch (February 16, 10:30 AM - 2:00 PM): This President's Day, celebrate at Boqueria DC with their special unlimited brunch tapas and drinks (usually offered only on weekends!)
