Songkran (Thai New Year) Presented by Apinya Thai Food Co.

DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, D.C. - March 17, 2013 - PRLog -- WASHINGTON, DC, March 18, 2013 — It’s time to learn the phrase sawatdi pi mai (happy new year) because Apinya Thai Food Co., in a partnership with mad momos, will be celebrating Thai New Year, Songkran, at a special event on April 13, 2013 from 5 to 8pm. In lieu of the Thai tradition of throwing water on passers-by, Apinya is bringing the festivities to their favorite local watering hole, mad momos at 3605 14th Street NW in DC’s Columbia Heights neighborhood.

Apinya Thai Food Co. will be setting up a kiosk for visitors to sample and purchase the original Apinya Thai Chili Sauce  and are tying in the event with the announcement of two brand new, Thai-inspired chili sauces to their product lineup. They will also be selling and giving away Thai key chains, Apinya brand stickers, collector’s cards, and limited-edition postcards created just for this event.

In addition to their regular menu of new American and crossover cuisine featuring hand-crafted momos (dumplings), mad momos is collaborating with Apinya Thai Food Co. to offer special one-time menu featuring food and drinks that pair or use Apinya’s chili sauces. Guests will be able to try five momos with a choice of chili sauces ($4), a beer-braised BBQ chicken sandwich cooked with Apinya Thai Chili Sauce ($6), a plate of five wings with a choice of chili sauces ($4), and the mad Bloody Apinya with Apinya Thai Chili Sauce ($5).

Guests are invited to come for the Songkran menu and stay for dinner and drinks. The first level of mad momos contains a full-service bar and main dining area that extends onto an outdoor terrace with sidewalk seating. The second level features more dining, a charming treetop patio, vaulted ceiling lounge, second bar, and an inviting beer deck. The restaurant will remain open until 3am following the Songkran event.

High-resolution photos are available.
