Josh Henderson and his Huxley Wallace Collective open Quality Athletics this Friday. The sports bar in Pioneer Square won’t be typical, but equal parts dining room and bar—though on game days, all bar. There’ll be an outdoor patio, a wood-fired grill, and a menu and design aesthetic similar to Westward’s.

Say goodbye to summer on Sept. 18 from 5 to 8 p.m. at Purple Cafe & Wine Bar’s rooftop block party. 
$30 gets you an all-inclusive ticket for wine and “Mediterranean street food.” Book at 829-2280.

Volunteer Park’s next Sunday Supper on September 14 will be Thai-themed. Ericka Burke teams with Max Borthwick of Thaifusions to offer items like lemongrass and coriander barbecue chicken with a northern Thai dried-chili dipping sauce. The multicourse meal begins at 6 p.m. and costs $40 per person (alcohol not included). Reservations required. Call 329-3155 or book online.
