Friday, April 21, 2017
HOUSTON (KTRK) -- Make sure you set aside a purple outfit and get ready to party like it's 1999. A local restaurant is paying tribute to legendary musician Prince with a dinner and party.

It's been one year since the late multi-award winning singer and songwriter was found dead in an elevator at his Paisley Park home. His death on April 21, 2016, sent shock waves across the world.

Executive chef and owner of Lucille's Restaurant Chris Williams is a big fan of Prince, and he honored him with a special 7-course dinner on April 19.

"Because Prince loved the number 7 and was a vegan, Chef Chris has put together this 7-Course Pescatarian Wine Dinner (with some vegan options)," the event states.
