Cure Bar & Bistro Opening

Posted on April 23, 2008 in Parties/Events

It’s not even open to the public yet, so Cure Bar & Bistro must be as excited about next weekend’s Gold Cup races as the rest of us! It held a “soft opening” VIP party for the Gold Cup last night, where we were able to test out the comfy couches, watch the big screens, and taste the delights.

I’ve been cure-ious about what would inhabit the space in the Grand Hyatt (10th & H Streets NW) downtown since it’s lobby renovations. This lounge atmosphere seems to be the trend in restaurants lately, so it’s sure to be a hit. Also, the food was pretty incredible. I wasn’t too keen on the chicken liver pate, but the rest of the nibbles were scrumptious!

The food… yum! The other best part was chatting up the polo players.
