The Hungry Cat's new Happy Hour, Prix Fixe, Crab Fest!

One year ago, Congress defunded public media. Now that we're 100% community funded, please become a sustaining member or increase your existing membership today.

The Hungry Cat in Hollywood has always been a great spot to sidle up to the bar and order a plate full of oysters and a delicious specialty cocktail (and the restaurant's signature blue cheese burger & fries, if you're really hungry). But the deals are getting better by the day at their Hollywood location: they've extended their happy hour so that you can booze it up on half-price cocktails and draft beers from 12p-6p.

There's also a brand new prix fixe lunch deal: $20 for an app, main, and "fresh fruit virgin beverage" -- but for $2 more, you can turn that virgin into a real cocktail.

If that's not enough good stuff, they are also now taking reservations for the annual Crabfest being held on June 21st: a five-course crab feast featuring crab rolls, crab soup, and a mess o' steamed crabs for your cracking pleasure.

One year ago, Congress voted to defund public media, eliminating a critical $1.7 million from our budget every year going forward. But they couldn’t silence us, and we’re not going anywhere.
