Where will you be staying?
Any specific grub you’re interested in? We eat around Chinatown a fair bit, so I could steer you to a few places if that’s your thing.#1 LBGE December 2012 • #2 SBGE February 2013 • #3 Mini May 2013A happy BGE family in Houston, TX. -

Here is my list.
High end steak - Papas steakhouse. Either location. There is no comparison if you’re considering the whole pkg. service is the best in the city.
I’m really enjoying killens stq. it’s a combo of killens steak and bbq joints and located in town.
Seafood- I love Goode co.pro tip: snapper San Antonio and a campanchana extra Either location
breakfast taco - villa arcos. VA has amazing tortillas
tex mex- ninfas,el tiempo,Lupe tortilla, pappasitos. All four are good in there own way
Bbq- roegels brisket is fantastic. Tejas is supposed to be the joint though. I’ve never been.
Italian- coltivare is delicious. Black pepper pasta I crave from there But plan to wait. Super small place
bcn taste and tradition. Spanish, gin and tonic menu, amazing, expensive
My pro tips if you must go:
perrys only on Friday for the pork chop at 14.95 it’s awesome at that price.
Beavers...meh...
there is a ton of exotic (to me) options ie himalyan that are rated highly. Start here:

While in Houston last weekend I had the pleasure of tasting tamales made by Hugo Ortega. His mole negro was outstanding! @caliking may know better but I believe it is his Back Street Cafe that is where these are served up. Possibly at one of his other 4 restaurants.Large BGE, MiniMAX BGE, 2 Mini BGE's, R&V Fryer, 36" Blackstone Griddle, Camp Chef Dual Burner 40K BTU StoveBGE ChimineaProsper, TX
