Back to School

The summer is coming to a close and kids are headed back to school. If you still need school supplies and outfits, look no further than the Memorial District. Stores at Memorial City Mall like Target, Macy's, Dillards, Hollister and more all have back-to school deals.

This Saturday, Aug. 24, there will be an after-school activities fair at the Xfinity Fireplace. Representatives will be on hand to talk about activities such as gymnastics, karate, dance, art and music in which you can enroll your children. Visit our blog to learn more.

Get a Taste of New York City in the Heart of Memorial City Mall

Calling all Houston Texans fans - Dolce and Cannoli will offer $5 wine and beer specials during all Houston Texans games. But you can stop in for a meal and beverage anytime.

This is the first start up restaurant for Michelle and Jason Piltzmaker who hope to spread their success into other Houston malls, and beyond.

Dolce and Cannoli’s Chef Drew Rogers told CultureMap that he uses a filtration system that mimics the mineral content of NYC’s tap water to give the dough for his 10-inch pies the right flavor. Other menu items include sub sandwiches, soup, salads, paninis and, for desert, a wide variety of Italian pastries.
