Fresh snapper and celebrity chef at Reef
Reef is one of the hottest restaurants in Houston. Located in midtown, the eatery is also home to celebrity chef Bryan Caswell. You might have seen him on “The Next Iron Chef”.

Fiesta Dessert Nachos
Here’s a Fiesta recipe to satisfy your Sweet Tooth. Ever tried nachos for dessert? These Dessert Nachos will top off the best Fiesta party. I’d serve these with a little sparkling wine….Yellow Tail has a really inexpensive bubbly and a brand new Muscato…either would work well.
