Where Y’at this Weekend: NOWFE, Vacca Steakhouse, Bicentennial Ball, Sazerac House

NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) — Behind every great person is an even better father. Sunday is Father’s Day, and this weekend features a variety of ways to celebrate the special dads in our lives. Here are Where Y’at’s weekend picks!

• First, if dad is a wine lover, take him to the New Orleans Wine and Food Experience. This year features over 30 unique labs and experiences in addition to their main events such as tonight’s Vinola and Saturday’s Grand Tasting. If dad loves brunch: don’t miss Sunday’s Burlesque, Bubbly, & Brunch on June 15!
• Don’t make dad BBQ this Father’s Day weekend! Treat him to a charbroiled wagyu steak at Vacca Steakhouse in Metairie. If your dad is a steak lover, Vacca is the place to go, with their vast selection of tender prime cuts, elegant atmosphere, and signature cocktails.
• Next, Lakeside Shopping Center hosts the Jefferson Parish Bicentennial Ball on Saturday evening, June 14. Dress to impress as Irma Thomas, Sister Sledge, and many more hit the stage for this legendary night. Enjoy cuisine from Drago’s, Sala Nola, and other great Jefferson Parish restaurants.
• Finally, treat dad to a trip to the Sazerac House, which offers tours and a selection of drink mixing and tasting classes. Bring your dad to one of their classes on Father’s Day weekend to learn about the history, taste, smell, and significance of their favorite drinks.
