Killen's Barbecue

Why visit:

I've had Killen's bookmarked SO long that for my annual pilgrimage to Texas to escape the grip of the frigid northeast I HAD to stop by. Beef Rib was an ethereal eating experience that was mind alteringly amazing for beef flavor and tenderness. No hyperbole or hype, this lived up to the reputation buy this.The beef rib is humongous and should fill up most sane people LOL.

The Gardens Houston

Why visit:

This place is absolutely incredible! You would be crazy not to at least visit this place. The staff is friendly and funny and professional with TONS of experience. The rooms are clean and neat, prepared for several sizes of parties or types of occasions. The FOOD is consistent, my brother got married here and we Loved it! Not a Single issue. The Price is right, very competitive and fair.

Melange Creperie

Why visit:

I can't believe I haven't tried this stand sooner. The crepes made here are worth the wait (40 minutes to be exact). My crepe consisted of roasted cauliflower, mixed greens, egg, hot sauce, and cheese. I have craved this crepe every weekend since! It's THAT GOOD.

Hubcap Grill

Why visit:

Had an amazing lunch here today. Got the cheeseburger with mayo, lettuce, tomato and pickle. The meat was fresh, well seasoned and tasty. I would have preferred it slightly less well done, but my bad for not voicing that. The bun was soft and fresh.

Pax Americana

Why visit:

I've been to Pax on four different occasions now, including Mother's Day. Out of all of these dining experiences, I haven't found a single thing to complain about. It can get noisy on a busy night, but that has never kept me and my party from enjoying ourselves.

The Boardwalk

Why visit:

I think the Boardwalk is what you make it. If you enjoy being along the water, rides, games, dinning and realizing these things cost more than average you'll have fun. My favorite was just enjoying the Ferris wheel and space needle.

The Galleria

Why visit:

The Galleria mall is pretty much where everyone goes in Houston for high end clothing, What else of course. I wouldn't visit during the holiday season though. parking is horrible. Zara, Sony, Apple and microsoft are the main stores I personally suggest.

Hermann Park

Why visit:

This past weekend we had a fantastic time at the kite festival. Parking can be a bit of a drag so arrive early, go with friend, or catch a bus. There is plenty of shaded areas. When there is not an event going on, plan on bringing your food to snack on. March can get hot, good idea to bring sunscreen, shades and if you are planning to walk around comfortable shoes. There a few public bathroom facilities. We brought a blanket, snacks, water. This worked well till noon. After that we walked around to keep cool.

Houston-Days Inn Astrodome

Why visit:

Definitely a place for great memories with friends and family! I've seen many rodeos, Oilers games, Astros games, All-Star baseball and All-Star basketball games and concerts. Being dropped off as a kid and walking over the bridge to Astroworld and Waterworld is still like yesterday. The size of it from the outside was overpowering, and once inside... Wow! This place truly had a nose bleed section!!

The Downtown Tunnels

Why visit:

We enjoyed the experience of walking the miles of tunnels. Entered the tunnels mid-morning and the foot traffic was light but after 11:00 am it was unbelievable the number of people walking and patronizing the restaurants. We intentionally stayed through the lunch hour to see how the tunnels serve the people in those buildings. Amazing!

James Turrell Skyspace at Rice University

Why visit:

A very nice place to visit especially when your trying to relax. I love coming here in the morning and catching the sunrise. The way the color and the sky mix makes you appreciate it more. It also makes you feel grounded especially when you hear the helicopters from the nearby hospitals. You cant help but wonder what happened and what caused that issue. Really makes you step back appreciate everything.

Houston Arboretum & Nature Center

Why visit:

It was a beautiful place. We loooove the trails, the visitor's center, and their activities. Above all it is pet friendly. Even though they have insect repellent available for free we missed it and we were bitten by mosquitoes, nothing serious but bothered a little when we were walking through the trails.

Kata Robata

I had been looking forward to visiting Kata Robata for a long time, given its history and some colleagues claims of its superiority to Uchi. Needless to say, I was dubious but excited.

Good Dog Houston

Why visit:

Not much to say negatively about this place. The types of hot dogs were all so unique but all delicious. There were fun bottled drinks available for purchase. And, although we didn't order one, the milkshakes looked bomb.

Pizaro's Pizza Napoletana

Why visit:

Hands down best "white pizza" (meaning no tomato sauce) in town! My go to is the Arugula specialty pizza which contains olive oil, garlic, arugula and shaved parmesan. No need to add meat as is suggested...it's perfect as is! While I agree the price is a bit steep for the specialty pizzas, you can't complain about the 8" single topping pizza with choice of side salad for $8.99 during lunch hours on weekdays.

The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center

Why visit:

Don't know much about the academics, but what an amazing and impressive campus. The Cathedral of Football that is their stadium is ridiculous. I don't know how visiting teams can come here and not break down into tears. Take a walk around to feel like a freshman again, just don't go streaking in the quad. The hills can be a bit strenuous, no wonder all the students are so thin. Either take a long walk from downtown or take the convenient and cheap pubic bus to the campus.

Lofton Staffing

Why visit:

A typical day involved interviewing applicants for various open job positions, data entry and maintaining contact with clients in regards to their open job positions. The hardest part of the job was telling a client you did not have any qualified applicants to fill their open job position. However, the best and most rewarding part of the job was finding applicants the perfect job.

The Pass and Provisions

Why visit:

This place was amazing! The food was really incredible. I felt like I was on an episode of Top Chef. The thing I like most was the little extras.The waitress taking our valet ticket so our car would be waiting. A little tin of mints with the bill. An unexpected take home treat... While pricey, you really feel that you get your money's worth!
