I’m stuck in Dallas on emergency duty - evacuated to work from afar due to Ike. I did have a decent filet at the Omni Mandalay - still, nothing worth reviewing.
However, many of my friends are recovering down in Houston, without power, and most of their freezer is thawing out. I usually have a couple bags of […]
I saw this video from a “Strip House” chef who was on the Today Show with Al Roker. (Sorry, but there’s a 30 second ad at the beginning):
The first few moments, I thought he was right on track about grilling steaks, putting a wet gray salt on a big fat filet mignon, putting a nice […]

I’ve been to Jimmy Wilson’s AKA Denis’ Wilson’s (but actually named Jimmy Wilson’s Seafood & Chop House) several times. I’ve had some great seafood there - lovely crab cakes, tasty spinach-artichoke dip, etc. Saturday night we headed out for dinner, and my girlfriend wanted some Shrimp Etoufee. I wanted a bit of steak - but […]
This isn’t “Pappas Bros. Grill” that Texas Monthly named the #1 steakhouse in Texas, but Pappas Grill Steakhouse is owned by the same family, and it was fabulous! I’ve eaten at the more famous Pappas Bros. Grill, and it was great, but it was crowded, and a little pretentious. This version seems a bit […]
My girlfriend wanted to try something a little different than the standard steakhouse - so we headed over to the neighborhood tapas. Sweet little place with a nice patio - Rioja’s Tapas. Weather was great so we sat outside. Riojo is a word for spanish red wine - and their wine list featured plenty of […]
Fire captain Jeffrey Ray gave me a call last night that they were headin’ up to Blanco’s Bar and Grill for some good ol’ Texas Country music. I hadn’t heard who was playing, but I hadn’t planned anything, so put the boots on and headed out.
$12 cover! Jeez. It better be Cory Morrow or Willie […]
Tonight we ventured out to steak at Taste of Texas. I continued my streak of trying Rib-eye, medium rare. The building is huge, with 20 foot plus ceilings in some places, and the echo effect only adds to the high noise level. There wasn’t a wait, but I usually don’t expect one on a Tuesday […]
