A Tribute to Pedro Infante is happening tonight at the Meyerson. Infante was one of Mexico’s original screen idols, and his movies will be played while the Dallas Symphony Orchestra performs. Cool. It starts at 7:30. Recommended: Eating at Jorge’s in One Arts Plaza before the show, where you can drink $6 margaritas and listen to violinist Richmond Punch, a Julliard and Yale grad who is truly amazing live. Then take the free Art Cart across the street for the show, of course.
Local farmer’s markets are popping up again around town. On Saturday, check out the West Village and Celebration Restaurant, and Bolsa on Sunday.
