Support the independent voice of Houston and help keep the future of Houston Press free.
We hope you've been fasting, because the Houston Press is excited to host the 15th Annual Menu of Menus® Extravaganza, presented by Stella Artois, on Tuesday, April 4 at 7 p.m. That's tomorrow, folks, so if you don't have tickets, better step on it.
With more than 40 area restaurants participating this year, guests will sample from tastings of local hotspots including Boheme, Beaver’s, Field & Tides, Krisp Bird & Batter, Peli Peli Kitchen and Pepper Twins alongside wine, beer and cocktail sampling.
The event will also include the 6th Annual Iron Fork Chef Competition, presented by Whole Foods Market, pitting up-and-coming chefs Gary Ly of Underbelly and Lyle Bento of Southern Goods head to head for a cook-off style battle in front of some 2000 guests.
This year's moderator will be restaurateur Kevin Naderi of Roost, who also happens to be a four-time winner (between 2012 and 2015) and one of last year's competition judges. Naderi previously offered some advice to this year's competitors: Don't overthink, use your time well, highlight the secret ingredient and have fun.
The Menu of Menus® Extravaganza takes place at Silver Street Studios, 1501 Silver, April 4 from 7 to 10 p.m. and you can still grab VIP ($95) and general admission tickets ($55) for tomorrow night online here. Doors open at 7 p.m. but VIP entry gets you access to the party at 6 p.m.
Keep the Houston Press Free... Since we started the Houston Press, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Houston, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Houston with no paywalls.
