Your Humble Blogger

I'm a food explorer and reporter, not a restaurant critic, more of a food nerd than a foodie. This blog records my excursions exploring Houston's great diversity of eateries with an emphasis on ethnic and national cuisines, peasant food and neighborhood eateries as opposed to haute cuisine or trendy foodie hot spots. I also throw in a few things I've cooked up in my own kitchen and give some attention to Texas specialties including barbeque and sausage. The blog is mostly about places that are new to me instead of old favorites and there's a little emphasis on places in the southwestern corner of the city, where I live, but I do roam all over. I don't make recommendations, I just report what I had.
