As I’ve mentioned in many of my notes, I’m a
native Houstonian, a rare breed. I’d like to believe
I’m an expert when it comes to getting around
Houston, knowing where everything is and all
about the city. However, I’ve slowly begun to
discover over the past few years how unique this
town is. I’m finding out about new restaurants,
