Landmark’s E Street Cinema, 555 11th St. NW. 202-452- 7672.

Hot in tHe City: With Friday night approaching and the heat index sky-high, the idea of throwing on high heels and schlepping around town is highly unappeal- ing. Looking for a laid-back, flip- flop-wearing bar, where dressing to the nines is not a priority (but not necessarily a dive bar). Fritz HaHn: these are the nights when i make a beeline for Cantina Marina on the Southwest waterfront. Since you’re right on the water — and literally hanging over the Wash- ington Channel — you generally get a breeze blowing in, and you can lie back and enjoy the house- made Michela- das (Mexican beer with spices and lime) and the chilled-out, come-as-you-are atmosphere.
