Local residents are dining out for a good cause in support of Houston Restaurant Weeks August 1 – September 5, 2022.

Founded by the late "Diva of Dining" restaurant correspondent and philanthropist Cleverley Stone in 2003, Houston Restaurant Weeks spurs an annual citywide boom in restaurant revenues and contributions to the Houston Food Bank.

Today, we’re live from B&B Butchers Restaurant to talk with several participating restauranteurs that say they’re touched to be able to give back to the community during this event because it allows them to do something small, but impact people’s lives in a big way. We also visit with Cleverley Stone's daughter, who shares what it means to carry on her mother’s legacy.
