One of Houston’s biggest dining dynasties is serving up a restaurant week of its own. Pappas Restaurants has announced its first-ever Pappas Restaurant Weeks, featuring all 10 of its culinary concepts in the city and across the country, with a portion of the proceeds benefiting local food banks.
If this sounds familiar, it should. It’s basically Houston Restaurant Weeks. It even runs at the same time.
From Aug. 1 through Sept. 7, the family-owned restaurant group will be dishing out special prix fixe menus and featured items at Pappadeaux Seafood Kitchen, Pappasitos Cantina, Pappas Bros. Steakhouse, Pappas Bar-B-Q, Pappas Seafood House, Pappas Delta Blues Smokehouse, Pappas Burger, Little’s Oyster Bar, Dot Coffee Shop and its recently revived restaurant, Yiayia’s Greek Kitchen.
The five-week event will span dozens of locations in states from coast to coast: Texas, Alabama, Arizona, Colorado, Georgia, Illinois, New Mexico and Ohio, supporting 16 food banks, including the Houston Food Bank.
