The esteemed lineup includes: Chef Richard Caruso of Javelina bearing the "Queso you need to try" (Esquire) that is "basically all that every food writer in town...wants to talk about" (Food Republic); Hill Country BBQ, the 2 NYTimes star icon; and so many others.

Congratulations - your summer food & drink season is off to a magnificent start...
Join Texas Exes of New York as it celebrates its annual Texas Chili Cook-off, a vibrant and delicious summer tradition that benefits students on financial-aid at the University of Texas.
A Chili Cook-off is a revered Lone Star custom wherein honorable teams go head-to-head with their heartiest, most addictive chilis. Come take a taste of New York City's best Tex-Mex institutes and help pick the winner in multiple categories, including Best Restaurant and People's Choice.
Try, just try to save some room for the velvety Texan treasure that is the Queso. A fondue of cheese, spices, chili peppers, tomatoes, and cilantro on its most basic level, the Queso reaches a mysterious sublimity with its myriad secret ingredients and heirloom recipes.
Wait, but that's not all. What Tex-Mex party would be complete without ice-cold beers and vodka cocktails?
The historic beauty of The Boat Basin Cafe only adds to the charm of this country-chic affair. Bring your old friends and meet some new ones - just make sure you are ready for a Texas-sized feast!
