 A Hora – Tales of The Cocktail rocks this coming week and one of the most popular events in the 4-day line-up is Thursday’s Cocktail Hour – a drinks-centric gathering with featured cocktail book authors and stellar local chefs dishing out spirit-laced food. This year, Chef Kristen Essig of NolaBean does Sake Poached Oysters, Chef Duke LoCicero of Café Giovanni spikes BBQ’s pork with Captain Morgan Rum, Dickie Brennan’s Steakhouse Chef Jack Martinez splashes rum onto lime glazed shrimp with summer melon salad and Chef Raymond Toups of Anatome cures salmon and dill in Ciroc. Presented by Diageo from 5:00 p.m.-7:30 p.m. in the Hotel Monteleone Ballroom, it’s a mere $35.00 per person.

GOING TO THE DOGS - There must be something in the air (baseball season? 4th of July?), because hotdogs are, well, hot. I’ve been chowing on the Chicago Dog (an all beef hotdog, topped with onions, relish, a dill pickle spear, tomato wedges, yellow mustard, sport peppers and a shake of celery salt) at Shaggy’s Seafood and Sandwich Shop and hitting the West Bank’s Easy Dogs for a Katrina Dog (a skinless beef dog with chili, slaw, cheese, onion, and cheddar fish crackers) to curb the craving. Or, for those times when the crunch is calling, there are those damn addictive Dorito’s X-13D chips that taste an awful lot like a hotdog with the works.
