    Craftsman: Mardi Gras Takeover

    The lively East Austin drinkery unveils an amazing Mardi Gras pop-up experience featuring a delicious array of their favorite New Orleans-inspired cocktails and food, with the whole joint decorated to make guests feel like they've been transported to the middle of the French Quarter. Note: A recent preview reveals that, instead of just throwing some basic N'awlins-sparked flair at the bar, the Craftsman crew has researched that storied city's mixological history from 1800 onward … and used their intel to conjure freshly brilliant examples of vintage cocktails. We'll go out on a bead-draped limb here and suggest that you might never find a better Sazerac for years, for instance. But we'll also insist that we'd rather spend all night tossing back sugar-rimed coupes of that 1850-specific Brandy Crusta. Between bites of the special menu's succulent shrimp po'boy, to be sure. We mean: Laissez les bons temps rouler, baby!

    Nékter Juice Bar: Grand Opening

    What makes an opening grand? Well, in this case, Vincent Mai’s new juicery on Far West is offering 16-ounce fresh juices and superfood smoothies for just one dollar (that’s one of those per customer, por favor) and the day’s sales go to benefit Urban Roots. And if you show up early, you can probably score some branded swag, too. All in all, that sounds pretty grand.
