    This Week in Gluttony

    DIFFA Burgers & Burgundy with John Tesar tops best food and drink events in Dallas

    Jonathan Rienstra
    Sep 24, 2013 | 6:00 am

    This Week in Gluttony is front-loaded with wine dinners. Four-course wine dinners to be exact, because it’s important to have three square meals a day, and the number four is a perfect square and the square root of a perfect square and there are four sides to a square. Wake up, sheeple, the answer is right under your noses.

    There’s also the Greek Food Festival, a lesson on how to make raw cheesecake (on purpose), and John Tesar and company creating burgers for DIFFA. For $20 extra, Tesar will yell at you after dessert.

    Easter 2026 falls on April 5.

    Before brunch was the staple it is today, there was Easter brunch. (Although maybe in olden times, they called it lunch.) Whatever it was called, the migration to munch following Easter Sunday services is a tradition that dates back decades.

    In more recent years, brunch has evolved into a weekly celebration — but the Easter Sunday brunch will always remain a standout brunch and thus deserves its own list.

    In 2026, Easter falls slightly on the early side: April 5. That's less than a month away. Never too soon to get those reservations in.

    Here's our list of restaurants serving Easter brunch in Dallas for 2026. Bookmark it and check back. We'll add more as restaurants reveal their menus.
