Offal (or is it 'Awful') Happy Hour?

A local DC haunt, 'Bar Pilar', is now offering what they call the 'Offal Happy Hour'. All offal (pate, head cheese, ears, livers, brains) are only $4 during happy hour. Did a little checking, and the 'ears' part just happen to be pigs ears. From 'Urban Daddy':  "mid-western pig’s ears, which are brined, simmered in broth and fried in peanut oil". The end result is pictured left. As someone who gives pig's ears to his dog for a treat, I think I'll pass on this one. But to be fair, the rest of the menu at 'Bar Pilar' (especially their draft beer list) looks pretty good.

The offal truth.
