COVID-19

In light of the continuing developments of the COVID-19 virus and the announcement from the Federal Government extending the Social Distancing Guidelines, Houston Press, LLC has decided to further postpone its annual Menu of Menus Extravaganza 2020 date until September 1st. All tickets purchased for the original date will be honored for the rescheduled September 1st date.

While this decision comes at a time of universal uncertainty, we take the safety and health of our guests, staff and community very seriously.

Thank you for your continued support and we look forward to celebrating our diverse culinary scene with you in September.
