April 11, 2017 by

Macaroni and cheese is the ultimate comfort food, whether it comes from a box or you craft it from scratch in your kitchen.

The exact methods that chefs use to craft it from scratch, however, varies from one local eatery to the next.

More than 20 Houston eateries will be dishing out two-ounce samples of their signature mac and cheese dishes, and when you pay $50 for a general admission ticket, you're invited to eat as many bites as you can handle. For those who are over 21, the ticket also includes five drink tickets to be exchanged for locally brewed beers and other beverages provided by Houston vendors. Will you be enjoying the dishes at this year's Mac and Cheese Fest?
