National Paella Day at Bulla
All week during dinner
It's time to celebrate yet another food holiday. This time, it's paella. Considered Spain's national dish, paella is a Valencian-born rice plate that originated in the mid-19th Century. This week, Bulla will offer a variety of paellas created by executive chef Miguel Rebolledo. Menu highlights include paella valenciana, paella de la huerta, and paella negra. Also, Monday evening, enjoy complimentary paella tastings from 5 to 7 p.m. during happy hour on the patio at both Bulla locations.
The market takes place every Wednesday at Jungle Plaza.

Donuts! Fest at MAPS Backlot
6 p.m. Thursday
Doughnuts used to be the butt of cop jokes and sad office kitchens, but no longer. Much like tacos and toast, the humble doughnut has been elevated to an art form. To celebrate this renaissance, the Donuts! Fest is bringing all the glazed and cream-filled masterpieces to one place. Last year's Golden Donut Award winner — Mojo Donuts & Fried Chicken — will return to defend its title among other peddlers of sugary deliciousness, alongside offerings of booze, coffee, and savory fare. You can't go wrong when your ticket includes unlimited doughnuts and two beers.
