Set out for Spring Break in Texas

By Leave a Comment

Spring break is right around the corner! Goodtaste has you covered with some quick and creative getaway ideas. If you’re looking for something cool to drink poolside check out Rio Blanco Pale Ale from my friends at Real Ale Brewing Co. in Blanco, Texas or pop the cork on Girard’s Sauvignon Blanc. Crisp, citrusy and definitely up my alley for fun in the sun! Plus, I’ve got some quick and easy getaway ideas….

Pre-Game with Goodies On Super Bowl Sunday!

By Leave a Comment

Even though our beloved Cowboys or Texans didn’t make it to the Super Bowl, chances are we’ll all take in some of Sunday’s game…even if it’s just to see Madonna’s half-time performance. If you’re tired of hot wings, queso and the usual Super Bowl snacks, I’ve got some delicious alternatives like a warm brie with a caramel agave topping for starters.

‘Good Ole Boys’ & Good Times at Mozie’s

By Leave a Comment

I absolutely love Mozie’s, the new restaurant in Gruene, Texas. Pat Molak and the gang did an incredible job restoring this 100+ year old building. And the food is delicious. It’s hard to choose between the decadently, deliciously greasy sliders and the fresh chicken salad — then there are those amazing little ribs.
