Dady opened The Lodge Restaurant of Castle Hills in 2001, featuring one of the city’s first tasting menus, followed by the modern American cuisine at BIN 555 Restaurant & Wine Bar in 2004. He then refocused on returning to his affinity for fine Italian cuisine, with the launch of Tre Trattoria—now his flagship—in 2007, initiating the movement for restaurants in San Antonio to create handmade pasta. His current concepts include the Northern Italian, Tre Enoteca (2015); an award-winning family-friendly Texas pit ‘cue Two Bros BBQ Market (2008); and B&D Ice House (2014); along with DUK Truck, a mobile kitchen. Dady introduced the coastal seafood-centric Shuck Shack in July 2015, a spot where thoughtfully approachable food and family fun collide. Next up for Dady is a second Two Bros BBQ Market, slated for early 2017.

INTERNAL AND INTEGRATIVE MEDICINE SPECIALIST DR. DANA COHEN – ZIKA 101
There hasn’t been a travel advisory in the continental United States since polio but now with the outbreak of Zika in Florida we have one, and mosquito bites are inciting fear among many Americans. According to a recent survey by WebMD, people are more concerned about mosquitoes this year than in past years and are planning to take additional steps to prevent mosquito bites. When asked which diseases spread by mosquitoes were of the most concern, 67 percent said Zika and 60 percent said West Nile. Both are a problem, but what do we really know about mosquitoes, what attracts them and what viruses they are carrying that we should be most concerned about?
Dr. Dana Cohen, M.D., is a nationally renowned internal and integrative medicine specialist who says while Zika is capturing most of the public’s attention, it’s not the only virus mosquitos spread this time of year and that there are even more dangerous mosquito-borne diseases we need to protect ourselves from of such as West Nile, which has now been confirmed in almost every U.S. state.
Cohen will explain to your audience the signs and symptoms of mosquito-borne diseases from chikungunya, West Nile and Zika virus and practical prevention steps to keep you calm, as well as five things that can make you a mosquito magnet and what steps to take to minimize your exposure to bites.
MINIMIZE YOUR EXPOSURE
What attracts mosquitoes to some and not others? Studies show that mosquitoes find you as targets more easily by:
- Carbon Dioxide: the more you exhale the easier you are to find
- Body Heat: the more you move around the more heat you create
- Alcohol: may cause your skin to emit a chemical that could attract mosquitoes; but more realistically, it can also increase your body heat that is certainly a magnet;
- Sweat: mosquitoes love moisture so perspiration makes for the perfect target;
- Genes: (thanks mom and dad) not much you can do about the scent your body gives off through sweat but certain skin secretions can cause an attraction – It was recently refuted that mosquitoes are attracted to certain blood types – so cross that off your worry list!
