Gilroy, California

Gilroy Garlic Festival celebrates all things garlicky, can be located from miles away

If it can contain garlic or have a garlic bulb or clove printed on it or be shaped like it, you will find it July 28-30 in Gilroy, which sits about 40 miles east of Santa Cruz and is known for processing about 90 percent of the garlic we use in this country. The Great

Garlic Cook-Off on Saturday makes the whole place unbearably delicious-scented,

and even the ice cream is worth tasting.

“Deep Sea 3D” one more way moviegoers

can find Johnny Depp, sea creatures

It’s only his voice, but that may be enough to lure yet more fans to the Reuben H. Fleet Science Center to hear Johnny Depp narrate “Deep Sea 3D,” an IMAX feature that also calls upon the talents of Kate Winslet to help transport audiences deep below the ocean surface. Not to find Davy Jones, but to watch tiger sharks, green sea turtles, jellyfish, sharks and other residents, all of whom swim to an original score arranged by Danny Elfman.

Fort Worth, Texas

Duce is second eatery to show off talents

of chef Tim Love; this one’s European

Six years ago, Tim Love took Fort Worth by surprise when he forced diners to accept that cowboy cuisine could be eaten on white linens and still be hearty and tasty. His Lonesome Dove Western Bistro is still going gangbusters. Now he has opened Duce, a more European- style spot on the West Side that might be considered the anti-Dove, although Love still likes to put out meals that stick to your ribs, such as braised veal cheeks with asparagus risotto and rack of baby lamb with red lentil succotash. The setting is spacious and modern, with greenery lending warmth to metal chairs and sleek woods. Duce, 6333 Camp Bowie Blvd., 817-377-4400 or eatdrinkliveduce.com
