Via 313's Special SXSW Hours; Fine Swine Cook-Off

EAST SIDE — We know where the Via 313 Detroit-style pizza guys fall on the SXSW price-jacking issue: "Special Monday #SXSW hours today 5p-3a on the East Side! Full menu, normal prices...imagine that." [Eaterwire]

SXSWIRE — Both Easy Tiger and Cenote are being transformed into sponsored sites for SXSW events, which means stopping by for a quick pretzel or breakfast taco probably isn't on the menu. Easy Tiger will be hosting SPIN (here's how to get into their day parties) and Cenote's the SpotifyHouse, for which you can RSVP here. [Eaterwire]

WAY SOUTHERLY — Bryce Gilmore of Barley Swine will help judge the Fine Swine Cook-Off and Flavor Fest on March 17th in Floresville, Texas—a couple hours' drive south out of town. Tickets are $35, or $75 for a VIP. [Eaterwire]
