Once again, it’s time for a food and drink roundup. Actually it’s way past time for a food and drink roundup, so much linky goodness will ensue.
Last week Alison Cook ventured out 290 to its version of chain-restaurant row to check out Bistro Paradiso and found it promising. This week she gives an almost poetic nod to Lila’s. Good Tex Mex served in a double wide trailer in the old part of Pearland? Alison loves it.
Last week barbecue expert Robb Walsh gave Luling City Market the once over. It’s a fascinating read. This week Julia’s Bistro on the METROrail Line gets his attention.
Last week Dai Huynh looked at Nirvana and threw in an Indian cuisine primer. This week she looks at what local restaurants are doing to add lighter desserts to their menus.
Peggy Grodinsky gives us the results of a Chronicle taste-test of locally-offered rotisserie chickens. I’m not sure I agree with their choice as winner.
Ken Hoffman gave Dairy Queen’s Arctic Rush a try last week. This week he gives IHOP’s Big Bacon Omelette a try, and awakens my Atkins…until he reveals how IHOP cheats, darn them.
Joey Guerra looks at local gay dance club, Rich’s. As Chris Baker would say, diversity is beauty.
World class, all of it. Enjoy!!
