HOUSTON — Houston Restaurant Weeks has been extended through September because of its positive impact on local restaurants and related-industries rocked by the coronavirus pandemic.
Organizers confirmed their decision Monday.
Houston Restaurant Weeks, which is one of the city’s most anticipated annual foodie events, brings customers to more than 200 local businesses for special menus and deals. These discounts are available for dine-in, take-out and delivery.
More than that, it’s also for a good cause. The organization makes a $1 donation to the Houston Food Bank for each meal. HRW has raised more $16.6 million for the food bank since it was founded in 2003.
It’s been a tough year for the organization. HRW founder Cleverly Stone died following a battle with cancer in May, but officials say they proudly move forward with her commitment to nourishing the local restaurant scene.
The HRW 2020 lineup features a variety of cuisines as diverse as Houston itself— including Phat Eatery, Tourao Brazilian Churrasqueria, Bosscat Kitchen & Libations, Café Poêtes, Peli Peli South African Kitchen and more.
