Home
Join Me at the Southern Living Home Showcase!
It’s hard to believe that it was just a little over a year ago when Houston was devastated by Hurricane Harvey. Many locals lost their homes and all of their possessions because of the horrific flooding. Despite the massive impact of the storm, Houston is recovering and Southern Living Magazine is helping our city […]
Tanji Talks: Texas ‘Cue, Cabs & More
You can’t talk about Texas without mentioning barbecue. It’s part of our state’s DNA. We are fiercely proud of our smoke. My job gives me the opportunity to travel across the state and try the best of the best, hear the stories behind these passion projects and dig into some pretty epic barbecue. When I’m […]
Goodtaste with Tanji Showtimes
Join us for the tastiest season of Goodtaste yet! Check this link for updated show times for Goodtaste in your city!
Picosos’ Stuffed Deep-Fried Avocados
Try these over-the-top, cheesy, fried avocados from Picoso’s Mexican Kitchen in Lubbock. Before hitting the hot oil, they are coated in cheese and breadcrumbs, creating a crispy, gooey crust. Here, we stuff them with shredded chicken, but you can also top with grilled shrimp, sliced steak, or peppers and black beans for a vegetarian alternative.
Steak 48 Corn Crème Brûlée
This decadent side dish from Steak 48 in Houston is a clever mash-up of silky crème brûlée and a classic corn pudding. If you can, make this dish in the fall when fresh corn is still in season – we promise you’ll taste the difference.
Join Us! New Season of Goodtaste Starts This Weekend!

My 5 All-Time Favorite Texas Cafés
Laid back casual dining is always my go-to when I’m on the road, but you won’t find me sacrificing good food for speed and convenience. With so many great cafes and small local businesses serving fresh sandwiches, fluffy pancakes and towering burgers, fast food chains just don’t stack up. In celebration of the forthcoming Season […]

7 Must-Visit Barbecue Spots
As Texans, we’ll admit that we can be overly proud of things like our state size and our sports teams, but I think we can all agree that we serve up some pretty mean barbecue. Juicy, slow-smoked brisket, tender ribs slathered in sauce, and more cheesy, buttery sides than you can imagine. In celebration of […]
Tanji Talks Texas Flavors: Seafood Meets Wine Pairings
It’s still over a hundred degrees here in Texas, and I don’t know about you but I’m craving the crisp, refreshing flavors of seafood paired with white wines. Nothing screams end-of-summer or Texas more than fresh Ahi tuna stacks with jalapeños or Cajun spices paired with a glass of wine. I’m picking a couple […]
Southwest Texas Flavor
Everywhere I go, I hear praises of all the great things San Antonio is doing in the food scene. It has become quite the culinary center. When you’re looking for something quick, fresh and easy in the Alamo City check out The Station Cafe located in the historic King William District and Southtown.
