Upper Kirbys Shanghai River Restaurant

August 29, 2013

The Theat Ah Theat Ah Houstons Theatre

August 1, 2013

So which is it: TheatER or TheatRE? (Or Theat-AH?) I've always been a fan of the "R-E" persuasion. Spellcheck is telling me it's wrong, but Spellcheck is also telling me that "Spellcheck" is wrong, so what a dummy. I love live theatre. I gr...

Taco Tuesdays El Gallo

New York does a lot of things beyond right (Uh, HULLO, Sabrett hot dog cart outside the Museum of Natural History, where had you BEEN all my life, ammiright??) However, there is one thing New York just seriously does not get. Mexican food....

Lunching At Chatters Cafe Bistro

August 24, 2013

I never met a cheese I didn't like. I realize that's a very hefty statement, but up to this point in my life it is 100% true: I never met a cheese I didn't like. I'm so confident in this statement that I'd be willing to make it my internet...

Houston Restaurant Weeks Hearsay Gastro

August 8, 2013

I wanted so badly to like Downtown's Hearsay Gastro Lounge. Under any other circumstances, I'm sure I would have loved Hearsay. But stuff happens, and when I went there the other night with my friend Meredith, it was just one sidestep after...

Eurasia Fusion Sushi

August 14, 2013

Things I'm afraid of: Snakes, dying alone, clowns, and wood scraping against my teeth. I recently had a hankering for sushi during lunch, so I did a quick Yelp search of nearby sushi places. Eurasia Fusion Sushi looked promising with it's g...

So here's a life update for you: Last Friday I moved into mine and Jason's new apartment!! And by "I moved," I mean my mom, Jason, and some movers moved all of our stuff, while I worked and took a delightful, leisurely lunch break at Corner...

Christian's Tailgate

August 19, 2013

Give me a good burger, and I could write all day on the subject. There's just something about the perfect burger: The juiciness of the patty, the softness of the bun, the crispiness of the bacon, Mmm!! Like a beacon on a rainy August Housto...
