The Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden will host its annual Food and Wine Festival later this week.
Scheduled for March 27, the festival will showcase bites from over 50 area restaurants, in addition to wines from two dozen wineries. Nine restaurants’ plates will be exclusively offered to VIP Guests, with VIP tickets already sold out. General admission tickets, however, are still available and come out to $159 for nonmembers ($139 for members).
With a power-packed lineup, the festival’s culinary offerings span almost every cuisine imaginable. From Nuri Steakhouse to Lake Highlands neighbor-owned Goodwins, attendees can expect a variety of small plates curated by top Dallas chefs. The full list of restaurants slated to appear this year can be found on the Arboretum’s website.
VIP-specific restaurants include Georgie, Nick & Sams and Ebesu. Georgie, led by French Laundry alum RJ Yoakum, was recommended by the Michelin Guide last year.
A small wine goblet is included in the price of general admission. The festival will have over 120 varieties available for tasting, according to the Arboretum’s website.
The festival, heading into its eighth rendition, is co-chaired by Chef Sharon Van Meter and Adrian Verdín of On Brand Hospitality Group.
Dallas Blooms, the Arboretum’s annual spring floral festival, is currently taking place at the garden. The garden’s cherry trees are expected to be in full bloom around the time of the event, according to the Arboretum’s bloom tracker.
General admission entry begins at 7 p.m. on March 27. Tickets can be found on the Arboretum’s website.
