Drink for Ukraine with Balderdash & Empirical – April 12th

On April 12th from 18:00 to midnight, come by Balderdash and hang out with us and our friends from Empirical. We encourage you to DRINK UP – because on this night, all proceeds will go directly to José Andres’ fund at World Central Kitchen, to support and provide food to the brave and strong Ukrainian people in need. At this one-night-only affair, there will be “Fuck Putin” Negronis, a whole menu full of new drinks, and a live auction with rare bottles and cool Empirical stuff.
