Restaurants
When Food is Fun
One of my favs just got recognized by Gourmet Magazine – Rosario’s in South Town. Gourmet named Rosario’s one of ‘126 Restaurants Worth the Money’. The fun, lively Mexican food restaurant is the only restaurant from San Antonio on the list.
The BEST French fries are made with this
<!– Alternative content <!– French fries with champagne…what a delectable treat! Zinc Wine Bar is now serving lunch and dinner. The food is fabulous and the fries are fantastic! These have a secret ingredient added at the last moment before they’re delivered to your table that make them taste sooo good.
A view for your party
<!– <!– The views from Aldaco’s Stone Oak patio are incredible, and so is the food. Whether you’re planning a special event for dozens or just a romantic dinner for two, this is the spot. And, whatever you do, don’t forget to try Blanca’s famous Trés Leches cake!
Boudro’s Salmon Bruschetta
<!– Alternative content <!– What a great party food! Talk about impressing your guests and that significant other. Cure your own salmon and prepare this delicious bruschetta from Boudro’s. Chef Nelson Gonzales shows you how easy it is.
Only in San Antonio – the best margaritas
<!– <!– Blanca Aldaco has another award winning margarita to add to the list! Her latest creation is incredibly refreshing—absolutely perfect for a hot summer day. Ever tried a cucumber martini? Watch…
Brunch at Brasserie Pavil is the best
Brunch here is such a treat. I love the sinfully good eggs benedict and the rich, velvety Monte Cristo sandwich. Their giant cappuccino is also incredible not to mention the champagne that just keeps flowing.
Is This the Tequila Oprah Likes?
Sit in on a tequila tasting with the founder and chairman of Partida Tequila, Gary Shansby. See which tequila is perfect for making margaritas and which one should be savored all by itself. Shansby tells me Oprah is a big fan of Partida Tequila.
Colossal Crab Cakes
As hot as it is outside, how about some beautiful delicious crab cakes? Morton’s crab cakes are incredible, and they are so easy to make. I usually make enough to have leftovers the next day…what a treat.
Colossal crab cakes
Morton’s crab cakes are my favorite! The jumbo lumps of crab are delicious and there’s almost no filler – this is a wonderful dish.
Great Salad for Outrageous Heat
The 100 degrees temperatures are getting old aren’t they? I’ m working on reorganizing my recipe section on the website (it grew so fast it’s out of control – a good problem to have). As I scrolled through the recipes I started looking for something that would be good in these Amazon-like conditions. I found […]
Pescadito a la Tanji
<!– <!– I’ve heard from viewers who named their child “Tanji”, someone who named their cat “Tanji” and even once had a shoe at Julian Gold named after me, but I don’t think I’ve ever had a fish dish christened with my name before. I am thrilled (and relieved) to say it’s delicious! Try Blanca’s […]
Cozy, Charming, Chic – Zinc Wine Bar
<!– Alternative content <!– I love Zinc! Who doesn’t! It’s a popular go-to place for the downtown crowd. This is a wonderful wine bar. The selection of wines is outstanding, and their cocktails are very creative. I love to sit outside in their beautiful shady courtyard.
Summer Food at Gristmill
Any time of year is a good time to go to Gruene, Texas…but summertime is perfect for enjoying the river, flip-flops and good food with ice cold beer.
