Twin Liquors locations in San Antonio will participate in the chain's annual Dollar Sale, starting at 10 a.m. Thursday. For the sale, Twin Liquors drops the customer price on all wine and spirits to wholesale then adds $1.

Brasserie Mon Chou Chou will launch its latest dinner series “La Table de Chou Chou” on Wednesday, March 29. The first iteration of the quarterly tasting menu will highlight France's Alsace region, known for cuisine that blurs the boundaries between French and German, due to its close proximity to the latter country. Each event in the series will offer just 14 seats at a $350-per-person price tag. While the price is steep, the dinners include a multi-course menu plus six wine pairings. Reservations for the March 29 dinner are open now. 312 Pearl Pakway, (210) 469-3743, brasseriemonchouchou.com.
