anyone got comments on Chronicle top 100? I think these lists are kinda silly, trying to compare taco trucks and bellaire noodle places with full service restaurants, etc. But I guess it serves a purpose.

Agas #1 and while I can't say for sure its the best as I haven't been to every restaurant, I can say its easily my personal favorite. This past week I took a group of clients there all of whom had never been and they absolutely loved it and said they'd add it to their restaurant rotation.

Came over from Bryan and took my 80 plus year old parents to Chez Nous in Humble tonight.

First time I have been in 30 plus years.

That's a damn fine meal.

yeah, it is good, no doubt. I haven't been in a while.

The new Chilaquiles place on 11th (formerly Berryhill and 1891) is quite good. Big emphasis on authentic ingredients. I had the Chilaquiles Bandera which came with three different sauces and they were all tasty. Hopefully they can make it longer than 1891 did.

So apparently this place isn't paying their employees, some of which are out front protesting today. Maybe give it is miss. They may not last a month.

It's still open, unless you're speaking metaphorically.

they have a great bourbon selection.

some miss the old days of a smoky haze and drunk UH fraternity members throwing up in the bathroom after too many Ice Teas. I sort of like it now. It's more of an adult lounge.

---

Used to play pool with Bucky at the Marquis back in the day. The carpet was black but that was from all the cigarette burns in it. LI Teas were DANGEROUS.

Marquis now allows you 3 LITs. Knowing how dangerous they are, I found that interesting.

I think they did back in the mid-90s, too. 3 LITs led to a couple of really sketchy decisions, from what I've been told.

If you like Thai, checkout Street to Kitchen off Harrisburg. Headed there again this weekend. Amazing food.

love that place - don't leave any valuables in your car though. I'm still finding pieces of glass in my truck cab from my last trip there

valet if they have it over street parking.

Pour one out. Brett's BBQ is closing end of the year.

I had a hunch this was coming based on the frequently changing menu and posts on social media asking for people to come when they were having slow days. I was excited for them to move over to a bigger space but location is king in this business and with the Boardwalk still in development I'm sure they never got the foot traffic they hoped for.

Agree on the valet. Sorry about your vehicle.

Not really a high end or sought after place I don't think, but I'm taking my kids to tiny champion in a couple weeks before we go look at lights. Any recs at that place?

Braised butter beans, fennel sausage pizza, side of homemade ranch.

I guess this qualifies.

Trader Joe's opening a new location at the old Randall's site in Bellaire.

So the write-in campaign that the gals and I from NextDoor have been doing for years finally paid off!

exactly. when my wife told me the news...I assumed it was just another fake out.
