When someone suggests I try out a Cajun restaurant I'm always hesitant because growing up eating authentic Cajun cooking has spoiled me. However, I've had so many people suggest BB's and insert how great the food is that I just had to venture on over for lunch. Walking in the atmosphere immediately takes you to…
The only thing better than eating at a locally owned restaurant is eating at a locally sourced restaurant. I love that concept of acquiring produce and meats from local farmers to better the agricultural state of our community and that is exactly what Local Table is all about. Not to mention the service is impeccable…

Since it was Mardi Gras yesterday we decided to try out a restaurant who boasts true Cajun cuisine. Tad's is locally owned and operated with a few locations around the Houston area. We went to their original Katy location on FM 1463 in Firethorn. It's a very up and coming area and Tad's fits right…

You can get a hamburger just about anywhere these days but to truly experience a great hamburger, well, that’s a rarity. As I walked into this bright and cheery diner I was greeted immediately with a “Welcome to Willy Burger!,” and the tone was set. I “followed the footsteps” on the floor that brought me…
When a place has only been open a few months and you’ve heard multiple people say how great it is - that’s when you rush over to check it out. I was so excited when we walked in to be greeted by such amazing smells and smiling faces. The inside is modern and clean with…
