Chef-owner Austin Waiter of The Marigold Club, now serving fried chicken and Champagne on Sunday nights.
And the drinks? They’re going big. Champagne bottles are half-off, and if you’ve ever dreamed of sipping Krug by the glass with your fried chicken, this is your moment. Feeling fancy? Add caviar service and settle in for the kind of Sunday that’s anything but sleepy.
Set inside The Marigold Club’s moody, glam dining room — think velvet, Murano chandeliers, and hand-painted murals — this new weekly tradition is giving end-of-weekend blues a very bubbly makeover.
Reservations are highly recommended. Southern comfort never looked (or tasted) so good.
Fried chicken for two, buttery mashed potatoes and half-priced Champagne are on the new Sunday menu at The Marigold Club.

Hannah McNair, Vice President of the Houston Texans Foundation, and designer Christy Lynn unveiled the line with a fashion show and luncheon that felt more couture week than training camp. The idea? To give the Texans’ female fans something beyond the usual game-day gear. Think chic sweaters with subtle Texans details, a denim jacket with logo-etched buttons, and airy florals that still honor Deep Steel Blue, Liberty White, Battle Red, and H-Town Blue.
“This is about bringing bold, sophisticated, and stylish options to our fans’ closets,” McNair said. “We’re proud to highlight what makes H-Town special and merge sports, culture, and fashion in a new way.”
For Lynn, the collaboration is personal. “As a first-generation Korean American, there is nothing more classic than American football,” she shared. “Bringing my feminine aesthetic into this world has been such a beautiful opportunity. I hope it inspires other creatives to push boundaries and embrace collaboration.”
The line — licensed by the NFL — is available at the Texans Team Shop at NRG Stadium, Christy Lynn’s Memorial and River Oaks boutiques, and online for pre-order. With just eight carefully designed pieces dropping in sync with the Texans season, the collection is as limited as it is luxe.
The launch party took over Drake’s Hollywood. Guests sipped champagne and cocktails, then ended on a sweet note with Drake’s signature strawberry cake — each slice arriving tableside with its own sparkling candle. Models, glammed up by CERON Hair Studio and FACEFORWARD Cosmetics, worked the room, while a chic, fashion-forward crowd cheered them on. The result? A fashion show that scored big points for both style and hometown pride.

The night’s second milestone belonged to Margaret Alkek Williams, Houston Ballet’s beloved benefactor, who celebrated her 90th birthday on the very day. Guests raised flutes of Madame Zéro champagne and shared slices of her favorite indulgence — chocolate cake — served in her honor.
Designed by Bergner and Johnson, the transformed stage offered an enchanting backdrop of mahogany lattice chairs, gold vases of spring blooms and whimsical details. Dinner from City Kitchen matched the setting’s elegance: heirloom tomato tartare with basil sorbet, followed by pan-seared chicken with Madeira jus.
This year’s Opening Night Onstage Dinner raised a record-breaking $500,000.
