Catch a Flick on the Lawn

Channel the Luck of the Irish

Throw on some green and head to B.B. Lemon for a fun St. Patrick's brunch and crawfish boil on Saturday from 11am-4pm. There will be live music and Irish-inspired food and drink specials. Reservations are recommended, and can be made on OpenTable or over the phone.

Hit a Brewery's Birthday Bash!

There is no cover charge, and the event goes 'til 10pm.

Celebrate Crawfish Season at Goode Co.

Last weekend's Goode Co. crawfish pop-up endures! For anyone who missed out last week, you're in luck: A special while-supplies-last event returns to its Westpark parking lot (between Goode Co. Seafood and Goode Co. Taqueria). Order online for pickup on Saturday or Sunday, or simply show up and roll the dice; the pop-up begins at noon and goes until the goods are sold out. Available items include boiled crawfish with seasoned corn and potatoes (in 2.5, 5 or 10 pounds), pints of campechana, and cocktail kits for margaritas and hurricanes. Advance orders must be placed by Friday at 5pm.

Nerd Out for Pi Day

What better way to celebrate Pi Day than with $3.14 slices of pizza?! Head over to Little Woodrow's in EaDo Sunday to catch this killer deal. Grimaldi's Pizzaeria has carryout specials on Sunday, like an 18-inch pizza, small salad and two fountain drinks for $25. Meanwhile, North Italia has added new pies to its menu in honor of March 14, like the andouille-creole pizza with Vietnamese creole pickles.

CHANGE IS A good thing, and with the start of a new year, I always like to reflect on how far I've come and start fresh by setting self-care goals for the coming months. Personal growth is a passion for me, and also something I enjoy. Guiding a business through growth and change is also one of my passions, so I am very pleased to announce that Escape Spa is going to be expanding in 2025! We’re honored that we’ve built such a loyal following since opening in Cypress in July of 2022, and we’re thrilled to be in a position to grow our wellness and recovery sanctuary just outside of Houston.

The building is 101 years old, and while the original footprint and façade remain, the interior has a decidedly updated, ultra-luxe beach vibe.
