Simplicity and good ingredients. That’s the secret to good food anytime according to Joe Cosniac, owner of the legendary Paesanos in Alamo Heights. I couldn’t agree more! There is a sort of magic that lingers in his kitchen…everything always comes together like clockwork!
‘Tis the season to give…and by that I mean shop! San Antonio, Houston and the surrounding Hill Country have some wonderfully practical destinations for finding good deals on all of the good stuff. It truly is more rewarding to give than to receive, BUT it’s pretty darn cool when you receive a gift that you can enjoy right then and there – something delicious!

“Joe” is legendary…everyone knows the feisty owner of San Antonio’s most popular Italian restaurant for the last 40 years…Paesanos.
I want to introduce you to the Paesanos at 1604. Sure, you can get the famous ‘Shrimp Paesano’ there, but you can also get some very special dishes that aren’t on the menu at the other Paesanos. Plus, the patio here at 1604 is BEAUTIFUL – from the fountain chock-full of beautiful Koi to the lush landscaping and shady umbrellas.
