Oscar Themed Dinner; The Moth Gets Sour

OAK CLIFF—Ten Bells Tavern is making lemons into lemonade (with vodka, hopefully). Forced by the city to demolish their outdoor wooden stage, they've used the wood to construct giant picnic tables. [Eaterwire]

DEEP ELLUM—Underground dinner king Chef DAT is celebrating the Oscars with a five-course dinner centered around the year's nominated films — think Django Unchained gumbo and Beasts of the Southern Wild boar with boudin. The BYOB dinner is this Saturday, February 23 at 7:30 p.m. and seats are $85 per person; RSVP to dat@chefdat.com. [CraveDFW]

DESIGN DISTRICT—The Meddlesome Moth and Austin's Jester King Brewery are putting their heads together for a sour beer pairing dinner on Monday, February 25. The meal will feature five courses (including pheasant and veal short ribs) by Moth chef David McMillan and a whopping seven of the tart brews, so be prepared to call a cab. Seats are $75 including tax and tip. [DMN]
