Everyone knows Saint Mary Magdalene, the follower of Jesus (and his purported wife, according to a certain terrible book series). But you don't hear a lot about her sister, Martha. That's probably because she was too busy fixin' tasty eats in the kitchen while everyone else was out spreading the good word. But she isn't wholly forgotten, and from Thursday through Saturday, The Grape will be honoring the patron Saint of cooks and servers at their first Feast of Saint Martha. Five dollars from every meal will benefit the Stewpot soup kitchen downtown. Reservations are recommended. Call 214-828-1981 or visit thegraperestaurant.com for more information.
July 29-31, 5:30-10 p.m., 2010
