Slog Happy Is Thursday! At the Unicorn!

Posted by on Mon, Feb 8, 2010 at 11:01 AM

It's time for Slog Happy! And this month's installment will be at the Unicorn, the newest bar on Capitol Hill.

Haven't been to the Unicorn yet? Well it looks like this:

And in this week's Bar Exam, Bethany Jean Clement says this about the menu:

While the decor is entirely appetite-suppressant, the menu is only half a joke. The funny part: "Daily Popcorn" (maybe cinnamon-and-sugar, $3), elephant ears with "traditional garniture" ($4), unicorn-dogs (hand-dipped, injected with cream cheese, drizzled with sriracha, $5), unicorn balls (encased in way too much corn-dog batter, also clearly furthering the endangerment of the unicorn population: avoid, $6). Then there's beet salad ($8); flaky cod with a golden-crisp truffle-oil sear, finished in parchment paper with tasty peas-'n'-mashed-potatoes ($11); a bourguignon potpie with big chunks of winey beef ($12).

So lets go! This Thursday, February 11th, at 6 pm. We can split an elephant ear.

You sure that's not supposed to be 'whiney beef'?

Hay-yo! Daily 'Unicorn hipster' joke posted. I can now go about my daily business.

Scary Mary is charming and delightful and can carry a conversation. I've never met you, Mr. Ito, so I don't know if the same applies to you. But yes, if you're just looking for something to hit on, maybe Slog Happy isn't for you.

@6 Wow, what a dick. I kinda hope you die soon. :D

In other news, elephant ears?! I don't know if I'd want one of those at a bar, but I think it's amazingly cool that it's an option.
