I’ve got 99 reasons to suggest State Fare for brunch, but I’ll sum it up with three: Huge portions, tons of flight options and a really cute space. The eatery, which is just down I10 in Memorial City, boasts a boisterous menu full of southern comfort, Cajun inspiration and, again, really, really, really large portions. … Continue reading
A delightful new eatery has popped up in Montrose. What was formerly Teala’s on West Dallas has transformed into a chic, neighborhood spot that will win you over the second you step in the door. The adorable eatery Emmaline is a fresh and exciting addition to the Houston food scene. I went to Emmaline’s inaugural brunch service … Continue reading
I’m definitely a salty over sweet kinda person. I’d much rather eat fries than brownies aaaall day. I’m a big fan of the crunchy shoe string fries at Max’s Wine Dive, the crazy mountain of Vietnamese fries at Boheme, the cheese fries (hold the bacon) at Doc’s Motorworks and of course any greasy, messy, late-night … Continue reading
Louisiana is a familiar destination for most Houstonians. It’s a quick drive (relatively speaking in terms of the size of Texas) and filled with exciting things like casinos, crawfish, gators and, of course Mardi Gras. This past weekend I made my way to Baton Rouge for a Mardi Gras Ball with my boyfriend and some … Continue reading

We’re a couple months into “winter,” and I think we can all agree that (aside from some uncharacteristic freezes) this is barely winter. We are getting, interchangeably, downpouring dreary days with beautiful 70-degree sunny days. I’ll totally take it. Given that these are the conditions, here are some patio-friendly (for the most part) bars that … Continue reading
Alert alert! Museum District does brunch and it’s fantastic! I always like to change up my brunch routine and try out new spots in town and having never ventured near the Med Center for my weekly Sunday mecca, I was more than excited to put Lucille’s on my need-to-brunch-there-stat list. Known for Southern comfort food, … Continue reading
The world is well overdue for a brunch post from It’s Not Hou It’s Me. Thankfully, I was able to break the brunch drought due to the holidays and excessive amount of travel adventures to go check out Café Azur’s new brunch menu! I was quite excited to visit Café Azur because the restaurant is … Continue reading
I’ve recently started listening to the podcast Sporkful which looks at food at interesting angles and in a new light. The tagline of the show “We obsess about food to learn more about people.” This phrase resonates with me, and I like to think I’m the same way. I obsess over brunch to learn about Houston.
