What's Happening in Houston, TX…

Fans of Cajun style cookery may want to save the date for a special event that will celebrate the talents of local gumbo chefs.

Cajun cookery draws inspiration from a variety of sources, including the Acadains, and gumbo is one of its best known dishes. Cedar Creek’s 6th Annual Gumbo Cook Off will put this popular dish in the spotlight, and several chefs will be throwing down in this friendly competition.

This annual event will see the public treated to freshly prepared gumbo, and they can then cast their vote for their top pick. Awards will be presented for the People's Choice as well as the best overall recipe, and the food will be accompanied by live music along with cold beer and cocktails. Everyone can try their hand at riding the mechanical bull, and there will be other games and prizes. All ages are welcome to attend the festivities.

When organizing a large event for the public, planners may be in the market for effective promotional materials and other custom items. A banner printing company will be happy to help, and can offer options at a variety of price points.

Cedar Creek Cafe Bar and Grill has scheduled its 6th annual Gumbo Cook Off for February 1st. It will run from 1:00 pm until 6:00 pm, and the location for the festivities is located at 1034 W 20th St Houston.
