Top 100 Returns; Oxheart's Vacation; 8th Wonder Dinner

MEGA LISTICLES— Chronicle critic Alison Cook will publish her list of Houston's top 100 restaurants on September 12. Let the speculation begin as to whether Oxheart will be able to hold down the top spot (probably). [Twitter]

DOWNTOWN— As today's the first day of the month, here's a reminder that Oxheart began accepting reservations for August at midnight. However, tables will be limited, since the restaurant will be closed for summer vacation from August 1 until August 22. [Twitter]

UPPER KIRBY— On July 24 at 6:30 p.m., Haven will host a six-course dinner with pairings by 8th Wonder Brewery. Eatsie Boys chef Matt Marcus, one of the brewery founders, will join Haven chef/co-owner Randy Evans and Cove chef Jean Philippe Gaston in the kitchen.
