As I was compiling this list of my favorite Austin restaurants that I ate at in 2019, I realized I had some pretty epic bites and we have too many amazing restaurants! I’ve listed out 21 of my favorite places but honestly, I didn’t have a bad meal in 2019. As usual, please click the Vessel map below to see pictures of what I ate and easily plot…
Do you need a destination for a quick weekend getaway? Santa Fe, NM should be on your list! I’d go back again and again because there is so much to see, eat and do there and it’s only an hour and a half flight from Austin to ABQ and then a short drive to Santa Fe. Here are some of my favorites spots we visited on our recent…
Do not snooze on brunch at Gabriela’s! It took me entirely too long (so embarrassed) to dine there and I don’t want you to make the same mistake! Gabriela, herself, hosted us for this month’s Austin Food Blogger Alliance happy hour (turned out to be brunch instead) and I think it’s safe to say that each of us were blown away. From the pineapple mimosas (freshly squeezed pineapple…
Updated October, 2019 Who else gets an uncontrollable craving for a burger? I do, but probably once every few months…I don’t consume burgers often but when I know it’s time, everybody will know because I won’t rest till I get one in my hands! I’ve put together a roundup of my favorite burgers in Austin right now…don’t judge me! I love a good classic burger without the frills!…
Whether you’re planning a bachelor/bachelorette party or just need a friend’s weekend getaway, Nashville seems to be the destination spot for groups these days! While we were there, we counted 35 bachelorette parties in 48 hours! Nashville reminded me of NOLA, Austin and Vegas combined. We even referred to it as NashVegas! As promised, here are some of the spots we visited! As usual, you’ll first see my…
Hello most gorgeous city and beaches I’ve ever visited! San Sebastian was a DREAM come true! I’ll be going back very soon because I can’t get enough of the city and I totally get why so many Europeans go there for holiday! San Sebastian boasts everything you’d ever want in a destination spot – shopping, an exceptional culinary scene, PINTXOS, WINE (it’s so close to Rioja and Bourdeaux),…
Been to Barcelona? If not, start planning now and book a flight there asap! As the second largest city in Spain, loaded with all the sights and sounds of a typical big city, but with the feels of a small one, Barcelona was one of my favorite cities I’ve visited to date. It’s modern, has a bustling city vibe, separated into neighborhoods that all have their own look…
Updated May, 2019 I’ve been working from Houston almost weekly since last summer and I’ve had the chance to explore a ton of restaurants near Downtown that I would never have ventured out to when I lived in Sugar Land back in grad school. I’ve just scratched the surface and will be adding to this list as I continue on my foodie adventures, but in the meantime, here…
As promised after my epic trip to CDMX, here are some of the spots we visited! We loved CDMX so much and will be back very soon! As usual, you’ll first see my map of the spots we visited here. Interact with it – I’ve added some pretty cool vertical videos for your viewing pleasure! Brunch Ojo de Agua was absolutely dreamy and so much so that we…
To state that I’m excited about attending the annual HOU vs ATX Throwdown next year is an understatement. I’m really not big into BBQ – well, I can’t eat as much as a true fan does – but I do love meeting the pitmasters, oogling over the meat and dining with friends and fellow fans! This year, the throwdown was in Austin at Friends & Allies Brewing back…
