Little Sesame (DC) - Neighborhood Dinner Drop

  • Department of Beer and Wine 2724 Richmond Highway Alexandria, VA, 22301 United States (map)

BIG NEWS! WE ARE EXCITED TO ANNOUNCE THAT WE HAVE ONCE AGAIN PARTNERED WITH WASHINGTON, DC RESTAURANT LITTLE SESAME FOR OUR NEIGHBORHOOD DINNER DROP PROGRAM!

NEIGHBORHOOD DROP @ DBW
SATURDAY, MAY 21st
PICKUP TIME: 5:45 PM - 6:45 PM

If you’re not familiar with our DBW Neighborhood Drop dinner events, we coordinate with some truly wonderful D.C. area restaurants to create a special dinner menu that is pre-ordered from the restaurant website to be picked up at DBW. We provide a few different wine pairings for each drop that can be reserved below, but purchased when you come in to pickup your dinner. All food sales go to the restaurant, we just handle the booze.

We are once again working with our good friend Margaret Perry and Williams Corner Wine on the wine pairings. This time we travel just a little south to Charlottesville, VA and the wonderful wines of Blenheim Vineyards!

ABOUT LITTLE SESAME:

We're Little Sesame.

WE SET OUT TO BUILD SOMETHING DIFFERENT - TO SERVE FOOD THAT'S GOOD FOR YOU, AND GOOD FOR THE PLANET.

We are committed to building a HEALTHIER PLANET for the next generation. We want to make hummus the everyday plant-based protein and believe that growing, cooking, and eating climate-friendly food is the best way we can care for our planet. We partner with people who share our values to GROW SUSTAINABLY together, like Casey Bailey, a fifth-generation Montana farmer and regenerative agriculture pioneer who grows all our chickpeas. We invest in our COMMUNITY. During the pandemic, we launched Meals for the City which provided 100,000 emergency meals to our neighbors in need. Taking care of people is hardwired into our business and we pledge to continue doing good in the world.
