We are officially kicking off this year's DC Veg Restaurant Week with an exclusive launch party at DC Vegan's Botanical Bar! Brought to you by Hot 99.5, this is DC's top ticket to mingle with influencers, media, and select guests as we kick off a week-long celebration of plant-forward dining in the DMV.

The event will entail a welcome cocktail, Italian-American apps you are sure to love, and a chance to meet & mingle with DC Veg Week co-chairs Tracye McQuirter and Celebrity Chef Spike Mendelsohn.

DC Veg Restaurant Week is a highly anticipated event in the DMV hosted this year by DC celebrities Chef Spike Mendelsohn and vegan influencer Tracye McQuirter. The week-long celebration attracts thousands of food enthusiasts, health-conscious individuals, and environmentally aware consumers.
