We Have a New Name!
Previously known as The Grand Wine & Food Affair, our new name, Sugar Land Wine & Food Affair, better identifies us with the community we are proud to call home.
In addition to the name change, The Conrad N. Hilton College of Hotel and Restaurant Management at the University of Houston has been named beneficiary and joins the Fort Bend Chamber of Commerce as a co-producer of the festival.
As the region's premier food and wine event, we look forward to adding exciting new chefs, wineries and experiences to our line-up, making the week-long festival bigger and better than ever.
For updates on these and other exciting changes, be sure to "Like" the Sugar Land Wine & Food Affair on Facebook at www.facebook.com/sugarlandwineandfoodaffair.

Cooking with Randy Evans
Executive Chef & Co-Owner
Haven
Houston, TX
Staying true to his Texas roots, Chef Randy Evans serves up farm-to-table "New Texas Cuisine" inspired by childhood favorites at his latest venture, Haven.
His ever-changing seasonal menu features signature dishes including Shrimp Corn Dogs served alongside Tabasco remoulade and a shot of lemonade.
Randy invited us into his kitchen to show us how to prepare his version of the traditional corn dog, and now we're here to share it with you!
This unique twist on a classic is easy to make and tastes delicious.
Enjoy!
