And the Killa Wasi food bus, purveyor of all things Peruvian and delicious, has relocated to the brewery site (!) and will be dishing out the sweet and savory noms on this night – a night that also features bouquets from Lovelily Flowers, and Crave artisan chocolates, and live music by Rye Mountain Revelry, and … oh, lordy, there's more, but – just get on over there for an excellent time!Fri., Feb. 14, 6-10pm.

Valentine's Dinner at Apis
This is, we daresay, one honey of a wonderful idea for a couple in love: A prix fixe dinner at one of the finest restaurants in all of Texas, starting off with appetizers of Wagyu beef tartare and carrot cavatelli pasta, followed by entrees including seven-day dry-aged Rohan duck breast, ocean trout, and grilled pork loin. And you won't want to miss the desserts of mesquite torte or winter gourd cake, either, not the way these inspired chefs commit their brilliant artistry just down the road a piece. So recommended.Fri.-Sat., Feb. 14-15, starting at 5pm. $95 (wine pairings extra).
