"A beef-focused culinary event organized by the Austin Food & Wine Alliance was postponed from its April 2 date because of the novel coronavirus outbreak and the city’s ban on large gatherings through the end of April. Organizers said refunds will be issued and a new date announced later, and they urged would-be attendees to support businesses affected by event cancellations via relief funds and related events. The postponement was framed against the cancellation of South by Southwest and broader concerns about staging large-scale events; this year’s lineup, which would have showcased Texas and other chefs cooking beef dishes and would have included Houston chef Hugo Ortega, will be delayed. The decision followed the city’s rule banning gatherings of 2,500 people or more unless organizers can demonstrate clear methods to prevent virus transmission, and came amid rising case counts in Texas (13 confirmed statewide at the time, none yet in Austin)." - Nadia Chaudhury
