Summer unofficially ends Labor Day weekend (the summer temperatures, I’m not so sure about), and there are North Texas restaurants that want to help wrap it up. A day off means a barbecue or an extra day for brunch, right?
Bar Louie
The weekend brunch menu extends into Monday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., with $2 mimosa and $10 pitchers. Martinis are also half-priced all day. Multiple locations.
Evan’s Meat Market
For $55, grab the Grill & Chill Labor Day Bundle from Evan’s. The package includes four beef burger patties, four lightly smoked hot dogs, and buns from Doughregarde’s Bake Shop. There will also be hot dog and burger fixings like coleslaw, mustard, ketchup, dill pickles, sweet pickle relish, bacon jam, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, onion, bacon, and Zapp’s potato chips. Pre-order until Aug. 25 by calling 972-803-5218. 4266 Oak Lawn Ave.
