GERALDINE'S DINNER MENU DEBUT At Geraldine’s in the Hotel Van Zandt, chefs Sergio Ledesma and Garrett Werley will debut their new collaborative dinner menu tonight – and it’ll boast such treasures as a tartare made with prime beef tenderloin, black garlic, fermented habanero lacto-aioli, umami yolk jam, pickled shimeji, sunchoke, and sourdough. Yet another good reason, we reckon, for dining Downtown. Tue., June 6, beginning at 5:30pm Geraldine's, 605 Davis, 512/476-4755. geraldinesaustin.com
