Friday evening we propose all to meet at the graduate student bar "Valhalla" (a short walk from Duncan Hall).

Later that evening we can consider several restaurant options. One that may be worthwhile is the cluster of Goode Company restaurants at Kirby/Westpark. Within less than a quarter mile (did I say walking distance?) you will find a Goode Co. BBQ, a Goode Co. Taqueria and the the famous Goode Co. Fish restaurant.

To converge all back to one bar and wash it all away there's Goode's Armadillo Palace (they serve food too) within ... walking distance.
