Big Easy in D.C.

Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans — especially if you can’t make it to the Crescent City for its famed Mardi Gras hoopla on Bourbon Street? Don’t fret. Instead, boogie on over to Twins Jazz (1344 U St. NW) for tonight’s Fat Tuesday Jazz and Concert Dinner from 7:30 to 10. Guests can revel throughout the night in the music of Louis Armstrong, Billie Holiday and Cab Calloway along with performances by a number of traditional and modern groups. Admission is $45 and includes a full-course dinner (A vegetarian option is available.) Call 202/234-0072 for further details.
