The Independence Day holiday is typically quiet for restaurants, and many take the opportunity to close their doors for a vacation day or two. But there are still tasty events on the calendar this week, from a summery French dinner pop-up to two educational wine classes. Stay active with two chances for beer yoga this weekend before the fireworks begin.

Virtual Rosé Wine Class Hosted by Tom Thumb
The North Texas-based grocer will host a complimentary virtual tasting on summer’s most popular varietal: Rosé. Tom Thumb wine guru Curtis Mann will talk through four Rosés, including Rodney Strong Rosé of Pinot Noir, Hampton Water Rosé, Fleur De Mer Cotes De Provence Rosé, and Miraval Rosé. While the class is free, the wine is not. The tasting will run from 6-7 pm.

Solstice D'été Dinner at Sugarman's
Meaning “summer solstice” in French, Solstice D'été is the name of this pop-up dinner hosted by Hao Tran of The Pantry, a new Asian-inspired dumpling restaurant set to open on West Magnolia Avenue by late summer. While dinner details are minimal, the multicourse meal will be served at Sugarman’s (the bar inside nearby Hotel Revel) and will feature French influences with each course paired with cocktails. Reservations are $120 per person and dinner begins at 6:30 pm.
