Thursday, October 20, 2011

Does the smell of sizzling pork make your mouth water? Are you prone to hoarding extra slices on your plate at brunch?

Clarendon’s Restaurant 3 is in the middle of its third year of promoting Week O’ Bacon, ten days packed with pig-inspired dishes and drinks (yes, I realize that’s more than a week. But hey, it’s catchier than,  “A Week-and-A-Half O’ Bacon, right?). From now through October 22, guests can enjoy 3′s famous in-house, fresh-cured meat from their all-bacon menu.

If you’re among the camp that believes the more crunchy, salty goodness, the better, than you won’t want to miss out on this week’s festivities. Tonight, from 4 to 7 p.m., happy hour gets rolling with $3 craft beers and $5 for a glass of red or white wine*.

And for the bacon drinks and eats being featured tonight – drum roll, please -

- A Bacon Bloody Mary with bacon-infused vodka, 3′s house bloody mary mix and garnished with bacon $5

- Four thick, house cured slices of Bacon-on-a-stick, accompanied by “Magic Sauce,” $5

- A Bacon Martini with bacon-infused vodka, Dry Vermouth, served with an olive and bacon bit, $5

- Cheesy Bacon Cheddar Dip, along with a side of bacon-dusted potato chips, $5

Restaurant’s 3 love and obsession for bacon has received goes beyond the realms of Northern Virginia. Even the guys at  Travel Channel’s Food Paradise have taken notice. This week, they’re already smoked and dished out more than 1,500 pounds. And they’re having a fabulous, melt-in-your-mouth brunch with Bacon Benedict and Graceland Waffles this Sunday.

Still in need of more bacon? 3 sells their pig pride and joy at $12 a pound.
