Don’t miss acclaimed Austin-based chef, author, outdoorsman and conservationist Jesse Griffiths at the Texas Wildlife Association Foundation luncheon on Friday, July 10 at WildLife 2026 in San Antonio!
Jesse is the co-owner of Dai Due restaurant and New School of Traditional Cookery in Austin. From early days fishing in North Texas to culinary adventures in Europe and Mexico, his passion for hunting grew later in life. After co-founding Dai Due in 2006, the restaurant gained local and national praise, named one of Bon Appétit’s Top 10 Best New Restaurants. Dubbed “an ode to Texas,” Dai Due supports local ingredients, foodways and traditions. Jesse is a longtime friend and supporter of TWA.
WildLife 2026 is July 9-11 at the beautiful J.W. Marriott San Antonio Hill Country Resort & Spa in San Antonio. More than 1,500 wildlife and conservation enthusiasts from across Texas will come together for three days of fun, education and networking.
