Join us as we continue our tour de taste around Texas! Get up close and personal with local Lone Star cuisine and the folks behind it on a new episode of Goodtaste with Tanji. 🙂
There’s a sushi spot on Houston’s West Side pulling off pairing perfection! The food is sensational, but wait until you taste their wine pairings…unlike any I’ve tried anywhere!
Wanna make the Average Joe look like a hero? Bring’em here! A legacy grille in San Antonio where there’s always something for everyone.
Then, grab a plate at one of the largest music festivals on the planet in Austin. Gear up for some great tunes and exotic finger foods!
KUU
Everything at KUU Restaurant is a feast for the senses! From the way the food is plated and presented to the visually stunning décor with its high-tech interior design. The name KUU (pronounced “koo”) literally translates to ‘the art of eating.’
At this Houston hideout, the food is the medium and the plates are the canvas! Think modern Japanese cuisine served tapas style, the ingredients locally raised and seasonal from Executive Chef Adison Lee. This master artisan has a gift for combining unusual textures and flavors into one big adventurous delight! He even introduced me to some wine pairings I would’ve never thought possible…a big red with sushi??
STONE WERKS
Whether it’s a night out on the patio, a few drinks at the bar, or maybe just a quick bite after work, Stone Werks in San Antonio covers all your bases! It’s also a place for some really good love connections too…so we’re told! “Let’s meet at Stone Werks,” is a phrase folks in the Alamo City have been saying for over 20 years. Long known for Big Rock burgers, hand-tossed pizzas and super-sized salads, their menu now includes some fun new fine dining options at an affordable price!
That’s where their tantalizing pan-seared Ahi Tuna [above] comes into play with a spicy toasted coconut sauce I had to get the recipe for. I loved it so much, I ate it for back-to-back dinners! How’s that for a craving!
AUSTIN CITY LIMITS
Don’t think we’re full yet! Grab your wristbands, the party is just getting started with the best beats and eats from the 2016 ACL Music Festival. This year’s show may already be a memory, but the good food found on festival grounds lasts year-round in ATX!
Outrageous sights, sounds and eats at Austin’s famed Zilker Park. 😉 Our friends at Sysco Foods sponsored this fantastic food venue!
Plus…
