Mostly we feast because we’re hungry, or stressed, or bored, but the Cook’s Nook is offering a much better reason with Texas Table: A Feast for a Cause. Two causes, in fact: The chef-driven, four-course dinner will raise funds for Black Mamas ATX, a nonprofit providing education and training to combat maternal mortality among Black women, and Partners for Education, Agriculture & Sustainability (PEAS), a nonprofit dedicated to fostering connections with the natural world. The evening will feature a silent auction and the culinary talents of Cook’s Nook founder Joi Chevalier, Todd Duplechan, Uyen Pham, Robert Hale, and Pavla Van Bibber. – Kimberley Jones
