2 BIRDS 1 STONE WAS A HIGH-ISH VOLUME COCKTAIL BAR ON 14TH ST. IN WASHINGTON DC IN THE BASEMENT BELOW DOI MOI. DESPITE BEING UNDERGROUND, IT WAS STILL BRIGHT WITH A LIVELY VIBE. 

 

THE DRINKS WERE HEAVY ON HOUSE-PREPPED, CULINARY INGREDIENTS- OFTEN USED IN THE STRUCTURE OR INSPIRED BY CLASSIC COCKTAILS- FEATURED ON A WEEKLY CHANGING 7 DRINK LIST THAT BAR MANAGER LUCY DUNNING AND I WOULD PUT TOGETHER. ONCE LUCY AND I FINALIZED WHAT WOULD BE ON THE MENU, I WOULD DRAW SCAN AND PRINT IT. THE UNDERLYING IDEA WITH BOTH THE DRINKS AND THE MENU WAS TO MAKE 2 BIRDS AS FUN A PLACE AS POSSIBLE TO HANG OUT IN.

 

WE ALSO HAD A MORE CONSISTENT LIST OF HOUSE FAVORITES AND FAITHFUL EXECUTION OF CLASSICS.

​

2 BIRDS WON THE RAMMY AWARD FOR BEST COCKTAIL PROGRAM IN 2O16 AND WAS REGULARLY AMONGST THE WASHINGTON POST'S ANNUAL BEST BARS LIST
