A Traveling Foodie’s Review
Come along on my adventures from where I eat to where I travel to. Don’t be afraid to try new places it’s a big world out there! Send me your suggestions on where I should visit.
North Italia
We originally had plans to go to Maggiano’s, but when we arrived they had some gas leak going on. change of plans and we got to hit up a new spot I have been hearing rave reviews on. North Italia has locations spreading over the US and I can see why. When you walk in...
La Balance
Tucked away as what I like to call a hidden gem of Katy, is La Balance Cuisine. We’ve been a few times now and I have never been disappointed. I recently teamed up with the Cinco Ranch Foodies and with our first dinner I happened to choose La Balance. The chef and...
Cocohodo
Cocohodo just opened up and we gave it a try after lunch right next door. I heard they had really good coffee and sweets. They also have a small outdoor patio for when the weather is nice. We sat outside since we had kids with us. The menu offered a nice selection of...
La Balance Cuisine Wine Dinner
We visited La Balance a few times before and the food has always been spot on. This was our fist wine dinner here (priced at $89 a person). While we waited for the dinner to begin we where welcomed with a glass of Barone Fini Valdadige. Normally we are not fans of...
Peska Seafood & Culture
Peska Seafood & Culture is located off Post Oak near the Galleria in town. We almost passed it up, they are next to Whole Foods on the bottom level of an office building. As you walk inside you see of the “market” items available. You can buy all the ingredients...
Old Chicago Pizza and Taproom
Old Chicago Pizza and Taproom is celebrating their 40th anniversary this year. I recently got to swing by their new location in Katy, Texas and see what all the hype is about. I must say the hype is worth it!! They have a great location and I got word from the...
Crown & Anchor Pub
So you can’t always believe what you read online. Shocker I know! Crown & Anchor Pub was listed as pet and kid friendly, although when we walked in it wasn’t as kid friendly as I thought. Thankfully we went right when they opened and the place was dead. Soon after...
Brick & Mortar
Tonight we tried a new place which oddly enough is attached to a furniture store. It really doesn’t bother me considering how many places I’ve eaten within a mall, strip center, airport ect., but to some people it’s a big deal. I think it’s because it’s pushing to be...
Dish Society
So this was my second time to come to Dish Society and sadly I’m not more of a fan than last time. Once again they are “out” of some ingerdients and can’t make a few items on the menu. Since we where doing a “pub crawl” type of night I opted to eat at Baker Street...
Pinthouse Pizza
Pinthouse Pizza is a great find! Their pizza is amazing and wood fired, and their beer is really good too! Be sure to ask what seasonal beers they have on tap. They’ll even pour you a little shot to try them if you want. We picked out 5 for a sampler – Cousin Eddie,...
Tiny Pies
What’s not to love about a cute little shop called Tiny Pies? Even better I can eat a couple and not feel guilty about it right? We happened to stop in right before Thanksgiving and what they had in stock was almost slim pickings. We got a 6 pack which was $24. Now...
Antonia’s Italian Restaurant Wine Dinner
We had been to Antonia’s a handful of times, but this was our first wine dinner there. They have 3 locations around Houston, so be sure to stop in if there’s one near you. I appreciated that they had a mini cocktail menu display for each person, one side had the menu...
