The Houston's Cookbook
“Party at the Houston,” a cookbook featuring party fare, is now available in the Houston Gift Shop. The Houston Board of Trustees has published this cookbook to share favorites that have pleased museum guests through the years.
The cookbook features appetizers, beverages, brunch fare, teatime dishes and desserts, all contributed by friends and supporters of the Houston. These recipes are a delicious showcase for the culinary skills of scores of good cooks whose talents have made Houston entertaining legendary.
Proceeds from the sale of the cookbooks go to support the not-for-profit Houston Museum of Decorative Arts.
