"I attended (or reviewed) a three-evening Art Dinner series at Future Front Texas’s venue where chef Deepa Shridhar presented a menu inspired by Texas musicians and described as a mix of Louisiana, low country, Tex‑Mex, and her own fusion; dishes include Gulf shrimp sukka (a dry rub), a Texas root vegetable masala and grilled cheese kolache, and pecan pie with burnt jaggery gelato, accompanied by natural wines and cocktails and a tour of Future Front’s spaces — the five-course family-style dinners ran July 11–13, 7–10 p.m., at 1900 East 12th Street with tickets priced at $150 for one and $275 for two, and proceeds support participants and future events." - Nadia Chaudhury
