3rd Annual Week of Bacon at 3 in Clarendon October 12, 2011

Bacon takes center stage in the week-long Week of Bacon at 3 from October 13-22, 2011 with bacon curing classes, bacon cocktails, bacon brunch, bacon happy hours and bacon tasting dinners.

The Week of Bacon kicks off with a Patio Pig Roast on 10/13 featuring $5 pulled pork sandwiches and American craft beer specials. Bacon enthusiasts can pick from a week's worth of festivities spotlighting 3's house-cured bacon. 3 will offer a Bacon Curing Class on 10/16 at 3pm, where Chef Brian Robinson will demonstrate his own special curing methods, share curing rub recipes and provide participants with tastes from his cellar. The class is free but space is limited. Reservations may be made by emailing [email protected] . Throughout the week, diners can also swing by Chef Robinson's "Bacon Stand" where they can try a complimentary taste of 3's house-cured Bacon-to-Go and pick up a pound to take home.

Throughout the Week of Bacon, Restaurant 3 will offer a Bacon Tasting Dinner on the patio and a special Bacon Brunch. Each day for the duration of the festival the restaurant will offer a daily Bacon Happy Hour, where guests can feast on bacon bites such as the new bacon cheese dip over bacon dusted chips or the loved bacon on a stick and wash it all down with $3 craft beer draft specials.
