Texas Waterways Dinner Series
Gulf‑fresh cuisine • Garrison Brothers bourbon • A cleaner Texas coast
From Hill Country springs to the saltgrass flats of the coast, every drop of Texas water ends up in the Gulf. Gulf Trust—the science-backed nonprofit whose mission is to advance Texas’s legacy of balancing economic growth with natural resource conservation—works year-round to keep those waters healthy through habitat restoration, coastal-resiliency planning, and community-led cleanup efforts.
What the Evenings Deliver
Gulf‑inspired courses crafted by Landry’s award‑winning chefs—each dish built to shine with bourbon.

A portion of every ticket fuels Gulf Trust programs that protect the rivers, bays, and Gulf waters we all treasure.
Eat, Sip, Protect
The Texas Waterways Dinner Series unites award‑winning Landry’s chefs with Garrison Brothers Bourbon for an unforgettable five‑course experience highlighting Gulf‑fresh seafood, Hill Country produce, and tableside bourbon cocktails and neat pours. Each menu is purpose‑built to complement signature expressions like Balmorhea and Guadalupe, served by Master Distiller Donnis Todd and hosted by Charlie Garrison in six iconic Texas cities. From the first welcome cocktail to the final dessert pairing, guests taste how world‑class food and handcrafted bourbon can celebrate the rivers, bays, and coastal waters that make the Lone Star State legendary.
Beyond the plates and pours, every ticket advances real conservation. A dedicated portion of sales supports Gulf Trust’s Trash‑Free Gulf initiative through the Texas Parks & Wildlife Foundation—funding habitat restoration, oyster‑reef rebuilding, and large‑scale cleanups that stop trash and runoff before they reach the Gulf. Garrison Brothers cares because clean water isn’t just good for wildlife; it’s the backbone of great bourbon. Attendees should care because protecting Texas waterways safeguards fishing weekends, beach days, and the very flavors on their dinner plates. By raising a glass tonight, you’re investing in a healthier Guadalupe, a cleaner Gulf Coast, and a future where every sip and every catch still tastes like Texas.
