Where I Go Out
Chargrilled Oysters
$, American, Seafood, West Riverside
"Big fat Gulf Oysters frankly are not always at their best raw. Though they usually are at a few good local oyster bars that know how to source and curate. F&J's definitely does. Smaller denser and salty for raw and big and juicy for chargrilling."
Moules frites
$$, French, Cajun / Creole, West Riverside
"That was some of the best cephalopod and moules frites ever. Just keeps getting better."
Meat Board
$$, Southern, Full Bar, American, Breakfast, New American, Freret
"Wayfare meat board is tres legit. All done in house. Careful of the merguez. It is spicy."
Mexican Food
$$, Mexican, Tacos, Broadmoor
"Check out El Pavo Real in Broadmoor for some of the best Mexican we've had in a while. This includes a recent trip to San Diego."
Pork fecta
$$, Vietnamese, East Carrollton
"Ba chi, char pork and bbq roast pork with rice or vermicelli."
At My Venues
Messin’ with Texas
$, Food Truck, Tacos, West Riverside
"Brisket, radishes, and crema make a great taco. This is one of the best in town."
Avocado fries
$, Food Truck, Tacos, West Riverside
"This is avocado with an incredibly crispy coating served with a spiced mayonnaise. It's fat on fat on fat but somehow tastes light and fresh."
Seoul Man tacos
$, Food Truck, Tacos, West Riverside
"This delicious Korean-style barbecue chicken taco has complex flavors. The garlic and the onions are a great match to the barbecue tanginess. Pour some Sriracha on it and you are in for a real treat."
Messin’ with Texas
$, Food Truck, Tacos, West Riverside
"Taceaux Loceaux's Messin' with Texas tacos have slow-roasted Angus brisket tacos with cabbage, radishes, crema, and pickled jalapeños. They are the best late-night snack after a long day in the kitchen."
