ABOUT FEAST WITH THE BEASTS
- The 2006 event had 33 restaurant participants. The event has grown to feature more than 50 Houston-area restaurants, all serving their best dish.
- In 2008 we added the Beastly Battle – a chance for guests to vote for their favorite cuisine. In 2009 we added a Dessert Corner featuring sweet treats.
- We had record attendance at the 2010 event, and tickets sold out weeks in advance. With great restaurants like Taste of Texas, Crapitto's Cucina Italiana, The Melting Pot and more, plus a rockin' show by the Spin Doctors, Feast with the Beasts was the place to be!
This year’s event features 65 of Houston’s hottest restaurants, a craft beer selection in the Zoo Brew Garden presented by Saint Arnolds, special animal presentations and feedings presented by H-E-B, and a live performance by The B-52s.
