Tacos, hurricanes: Reliable Source rolls two celebrations into one on Friday, Feb. 2

The National Press Club's First Friday Taco Night has a New Orleans twist in February. In addition to the weekly taco bar, the Reliable Source will feature New Orleans food and special drinks on Friday, Feb. 2.

As a reminder, Club members and their guests can still come to Taco Night every Friday. The first Friday of each month, for those interested, is designated to help newer Club members get acquainted with the Club’s decades-old tradition of Friday Night Tacos, as well as to remind veteran members that Taco Night is a great member benefit – and to introduce those in each group to each other.

The Mardi Gras dinner is a special addition. Dinner for both begins at 5:30 p.m. To reserve space, please contact the Reliable Source at [email protected] or 202-662-7443.

• Chicken and Crab Gumbo $7


• Red kidney beans with rice and Andouille sausage $16


• Bluefish Po Boy $16


• Shrimp Etoufee $20
