D Magazine to Reveal "Best of Big D" Issue at a Big Party (and I Have Tickets to Giveaway!)

Be the first to experience D magazine's "Best of Big D" August 2014 issue, before it even hits newsstands. Enjoy a summer night out this Wednesday at The Rustic and kick back with a beverage and food samples from some of their 2014 winners— including Abacus, Mr. Mesero, Nick & Sam's, Bolsa, Stampede 66 and more. Tunes will be provided by DJ Sober and Sam Lao, and there's a concert after the event at 9:30pm featuring Jackopierce for an additional $15 ticket.

The $50 ticket includes food and drink for three hours, plus the DJs "and lots of surprises". You can buy tickets online at http://d-m.ag/U21YRB.

I will pick a winner on Tuesday evening and email him or her the good news. If I don't hear from the winner within the number of hours specified in the email, then I will pick a new winner, and so on until someone confirms they can go. The email will come from Dallas_Foodie@…, so be on the lookout for this email address. Prizes are not redeemable for cash or any other option. I will update this blog when the winner is confirmed.

I also received two complimentary tickets, so I hope to see you there!
