Brewery Tour With Dad; Grapes & Grease at Bird Cafe

GARLAND—Need something not-lame to do with Dad this weekend? Take him to the brewery tour at Lakewood Brewing Co. on Saturday from noon-3 p.m. Dads get in for half-price ($5) and they'll be tapping some special kegs including Mole Temptress and Lager infused with cacao nibs, vanilla, coffee beans, and molasses; there will also be pizza from Urban Crust.

SUNDANCE SQUARE—This should be awesome: Bird Cafe is hosting a four-course "Grapes and Grease" dinner featuring "four bubbles from around the world paired with each represented county's culinary-styled fried foods" on Wednesday, June 18 at 5 p.m. Seats are $35 per person; call 817-332-2473 to reserve.

JUNK FOOD WIRE—Oh good: 7-Eleven is launching an unholy new creation called Doritos Loaded, which appears to be triangular molten cheese product encased in a crust flavored like Nacho Cheese Doritos. Lucky for you, they're launching in DFW next Tuesday, weeks before the rest of the country. Hit up the store at 1010 Ross between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. or the 3716 Maple location between 5-9 p.m. for a taste, if you dare. [EaterWire]
