Mutiny Wine Room Fetes Fifth Anniversary with Party This Month

Mutiny Wine Room Fetes Fifth Anniversary with Party This Month

MUTINY WINE ROOM in the Heights is celebrating five years with a bash this month. Opening just months before the pandemic, the tasting-room-style bar and restaurant is run by Emily Trout and Mark Ellenberger, who also own Kagan Cellars in Napa Valley.

“Wine, at its worst is an expression, and at its best is a work of art,” said the founders in a statement. “We founded Mutiny Wine Room to create connections between wine lovers and the hands, hearts, and minds of the artists that create great wine."

The food menu at Mutiny is helmed by chef Eduardo Alcayaga who emphasizes local produce from specialty purveyors for his Cali-meets-Texas menu. The Ranch Board, for example, is a twist on the wine-tasting staple with sirloin steak, venison sausage and bacon roulade.

On Jan. 23, the anniversary party will also celebrate the exclusive release of Kagan Cellars' 2019 Vintages with a grazing table from chef Eduardo plus discounts on wine club memberships.

Spa-tacular Getaway Opportunity: Retreat to Mexico this Fall with a Houston Wellness Expert

Palmaïa The House of AïA

THIS SUMMER, LEBRINA Jackson, owner of Escape Spa in Cypress, is taking her wisdom and joie de wellness to the jungle. Far beyond the walls of her beautiful spa, she’s aiming to create a quiet space for people to work on their personal growth in a community-centric atmosphere. She shares what participants will get out of the trip and why it’s important to take time for self-care in 2025.

Why is it important for people to “retreat”? Life can feel like a non-stop marathon, and sometimes we forget to just... breathe. Retreating offers a chance to step off the treadmill for a bit and hit the reset button. It's about giving your body and mind some much-needed TLC, allowing for genuine relaxation and rejuvenation. Beyond the personal perks, retreats often create a cool sense of community, connecting you with others on a similar path. By carving out space for self-reflection, you can recharge and return to your daily life with a clearer head and a bit more pep in your step.
