Bon Appetit?has released a list of the Top 10 Best New Cocktail Bars?and it is great to see DC’s The Passenger?listed.? It is no secret that The Passenger is one of my favorite bars, period, and it’s great to see Tom and Derek getting mentioned in a list such as this.?
Andrew Knowlton’s blurb on The Passenger is pretty much on point,
One could happily spend an evening ensconced in the up-front booths, sipping a Moscow Mule at brothers Derek and Tom Brown’s Chinatown-area bar. But in terms of speakeasy appeal, you can’t beat the reservation-only Columbia Room in the back.
Speaking of the Columbia Room, if you haven’t had a chance to experience it, I highly recommend it.? The experience is nothing like you’ll find anywhere else in DC.? As it happens, I’ll be there tonight with Sylvie for a Chef Series dinner.? I hope to have a write-up of the dinner and drinks posted soon after.?
