"Beacon Bar & Grill, a hotel bar known for its traveler-friendly fare, has been serving a version of the Senate’s historic navy bean soup on a weekly basis during the winter months for several years. The seasonal offering, available as of January 18, includes white beans, carrots, celery, onions, and diced ham, and is served with complimentary slices of warm, crusty baguette. The soup special will be available for the next few days in light of the latest budget showdown." - Warren Rojas
