Tailgating Comes Early This Year; Cocktails for a Cause

CITYCENTRE—Come get a taste of some pre-Texans tailgates at the Houston Tailgate Throwdown benefitting the Houston Food Bank as local chefs outdoor cook their way to victory. (The odds are in Chris Shepherd's favor.) It all goes down Saturday, the 21st from noon to 3 p.m. at the Houston Texans Grille. Tickets are $20 at the door and Eater Houston's own editor, Eric Sandler, will be judging. [Eaterwire]

MONTROSE—Have a few cocktails, get cultured, help out a great cause. From 5 - 10 pm tonight at Boheme, a percentage of all the proceeds from drinks bought will go to support Main Street Theater. It's never a bad idea to have a justifiable reason to drink, right? [Eaterwire]
