DC’s Georgetown Cupcake and Sweetgreen Salad

You can buy your tickets ahead of time here! Andrew and I attended a media preview of the event tonight, see photos of what we ate below and what you'll get to grub on if you go! Thrillist and Honda did an amazing job making us feel like we were taking a journey from city to city, eatery to eatery. The event as a whole looked and seemed cohesive with the road trip theme and the food which initially looked like too small of portions, ended up making me stuffed. For the ticket price and major cities highlighted, I think the event showcased the best types of food from each city allowing for guests to experience a variety of dishes without feeling inundated or not provided enough.

Guests receive a passport and punch card, each city/restaurant you visit, your card is punched in exchange for a delicious dish or beverage. Also enjoy refreshments and snacks at the 'Rest Stop' and live music and giveaways. Don't miss out on this scrumptious event, the most epic road trip ever! We also had a blast taking photos with Honda's new HR-V, you'll have to seen at the header of this post or in a GIF animation at the bottom of the page!
