    Why You Should Visit Trattoria Pizza and Pasta for Authentic Italian Dishes in Houston

    /

    If there’s one restaurant that holds a special place in my heart, it’s Trattoria Pizza and Pasta. At one point, this was our Sunday tradition — a weekly spot where we’d gather for dinner, catch up, and enjoy a good meal together. It’s still one of my top picks for a cozy dinner out, especially when we’re craving Italian. What really sets Trattoria apart for me is their ability to bring out fresh specials for holidays. They always find ways to surprise you with new, delicious dishes. I’m talking about everything from gulf shrimp pasta with a white wine sauce to a hearty serving of classic lasagna. They offer fun…

    Houston Margarita Trail Finale Party

    /

    The quest to discover the “best margarita in Houston” was crowned to Los Tios Mios, winning the title at the Houston Press finale night for the 2021 Margarita Trail. Los Tios Mios margarita recipe featured fresh pineapple and jalapeno paired with El Jimador tequila.  All of the margaritas at the party featured El Jimador tequila. The recipes varied from margaritas featuring champagne to blackberries. I had never had El Jimador tequila before this event, but I would definitely order it again.  At the Margarita Trail Finale party, we tried margarita recipes from Houston area hot spots. The recipes were interesting to try, and I can’t wait to recreate these drinks…
