There really is no telling what you
may encounter in the way of entertain-
ment at the Starlight. How about a mar-
velous documentary about the late
singer-songwriter Blaze Foley accompa-
nied by some of his musician friends
playing his original songs? How about a
flair bartender effortlessly pouring a
dozen rainbow-colored cocktails from a
sideways stack of martini glasses without
spilling a drop? How about an outstand-
ing exhibit of art made from local detri-
tus? Rope tricks? Fire dancing? Seen it.
At the Starlight. With my own eyes.
Jason has plans in the works for bur-
lesque and vaudeville in the future and
maybe some comedy, too. Why not?
And all this without a cover?
Personally, I love the concept of taking in
dinner and a show for the price of din-
ner alone. Chef Diego Palacios’ menu is
well worth exploring. It’s a point of pride
with him that his sauces and dressings
are all made from scratch. They’re made
with love, too. The first thing you notice
about Diego is that he’s a big guy. The
second thing you notice, in rapid order, is
that he’s soulful. His gigantic Diego
Burger could probably be featured on
Man vs. Food (big), but his silky, creamy,
spinach-and-mushroom sauce on the
chicken sauté makes me moan (soulful).
As if that weren’t enough, Jason
recently hired Kathy Wisdom, the origi-
nal Kosmic Kowgirl, to staff the bar on
weekends. So, even if there isn’t much
going on on-stage at a given moment,
you can always hang out watching
Kathy mix it up with and for the cus-
tomers, flashing her famous smile. Oh,
and while the dance floor is still slanted,
the restaurant portion has been made
level and the bar is normal bar-height.
You won’t think you’re growing or
shrinking through-the-looking-glass
style. Relax. Have a chat with the San
Antonio couple from the next table cele-
brating their 20th wedding anniversary.
Listen to the tales of puma encounters
from the guys who just got in from
mountain-biking. You’ll have a blast, and
who knows – you might even get to see
Sandy doing an upside-down spread
eagle suspended high above the stage
from two red sashes. Really.
