Looking for something to do this weekend? Here are three choice dining events going on around the city:

zwanze.jpgZwanze Day
When: Saturday, 11 a.m. (toast at 3 p.m.)
Where: Holy Grale (1034 Bardstown Road)
What: Holy Grale is one of 46 beer bars worldwide participating in one of the "preeminent international toasts"—Zwanze Day, in honor of the Brussels's Cantillion brewery, which has been making lambics for more than 100 years. The Cantillon Zwanze 2013 (Cureghem Abbey Ale), however, is not a Lambic but rather a Brett Abbey Ale. Executive chef Josh Lehman has prepared a special menu for the event, including Kentucky spoonfish caviar, duck poutine and rabbit meatballs. Tickets are $15 per person (includes commemorative glass and pour), cash only.
