Good grill gone bad? Try these Labor Day dining deals and forget holiday weekendcooking
If you're like most people, Labor Day means beaches, boats and barbecue. This weekend, whether you're leaving city limits or just enjoying the double-digit temperatures around town (high of 94, baby!), you don't have to spend your time chained to a hot grill. Check out a few of these restaurant offers and events instead.
Saturday through Monday at James Coney Island, 20 original or cheese Coneys are $20. Feed the whole family or just get your inner Joey Chestnut on.
On Monday evening Eddie V's at CityCentre and West Ave will both offer "Dinner on Us" — come with a group of family and friends, and one out of every two entrees is on the house.
If you want to kick Labor Day up a notch, head to Freebirds Saturday through Monday, where all margaritas and draft beer will be $2 with the purchase of an entree. And don't forget that Freebirds in Shepherd Square also has bottomless mimosas at brunch starting at 11 a.m.
Speaking of brunch, since Monday is the new Sunday, Max's Wine Dive is open Monday morning from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. for a special Labor Day brunch, including fried egg sandwiches, red velvet pancakes and mimosas.
Beer knurds will also want to get to get to Galveston for the second-annual BrewMasters Craft Beer Festival, running at Moody Gardens from Friday to Monday with tastings, music, pairing dinners, a kid's zone and plenty of interactive events.
