I heard about a restaurant that has served customers for 150 plus years. That is amazing in it’s own right. Being a fan of the superfood Oysters I learned Dupuy’s in Abbeville, Louisiana have some of the best. As I stepped in to this classic restaurant the scent of seafood and steak hit my nose like a beautiful food potpourri. The environment was classic Cajun and the service was excellent as I was welcomed like family. I ordered the Oyster combo with salad and shared white chocolate bread pudding. My plate came with Grilled Oysters, Fried Oysters, Oysters Rockefeller, and Sweet Potato Fries. The other dishes served were a monster foot long Shrimp Po-Boy and Oysters Rockefeller and Oysters de Ville. Everything was excellent and Dupuy’s will always be a stop for me when in Abbeville.

Must Be Heaven

Must Be Heaven is a sandwich, pie, and ice cream shop in downtown Brenham, Texas. I arrived on a weekend and I knew I was about to encounter something great because the line for service was stretching outside the restaurant. The workers and service staff take great pride in providing you with the best experience and food possible. The interior has a lot of antiques and historical items and the aromas summon a foodie like the pied piper. The Reubens, sausage sandwiches, and sawdust pie are HEAVENLY!

Here are some photos I took at the restaurant. I highly recommend it.

Casa Rio Restaurant San Antonio, Texas
Posted: March 10, 2014 in FoodTags: Casa Rio Mexican, Mexican Food, Restaurant, San Antonio, San Antonio River Walk, Travel and Tourism
I am reflecting on how much I love Casa Rio Mexican Restaurant in San Antonio,Texas. For over 25 years, I have been enjoying the Casa Rio El Rio Dinner. The dinner starts off with nachos and guacamole salad. I love the cheese on the nachos, and the little bit of hot sauce that tops the guacamole off. It is a nice added touch that makes the dinner special to me. The top shelf margaritas are also an added touch that makes one smile and easily take in the people watching along the river.
Next comes the hot plate. The hot plate consists of a well-seasoned tamale, a big tasty taco, a cheese enchilada oozing with the best sauce and cheese, chile con carne that is so flavorful, and Mexican rice and beans.
I think the photos speak volumes, but you will never know until you give it a try. This is Tex-Mex at it’s best!

Just to the North of Houston is a small town called Conroe. Conroe is home to Lake Conroe, one of the best fishing and recreational lakes about 40 miles north of Houston. Right off Hwy 105, in Conroe, is one of the best catfish restaurants in the state of Texas. This restaurant is called Vernon’s Kuntry Katfish. http://www.kuntrykatfish.com/
Not to be long on words, I will let the photos do the talking, but I can tell you this, you will not find better prices, and better catfish anywhere in Texas. The green tomato relish and hushpuppies are out of this world. Oh, and the waitresses and staff, fantastic!

Houston has a restaurant that can make your feel as if your right home in Southern Louisiana Cajun Country. This restaurant is known as Ragin Cajun. Ragin Cajun serves some of the best po-boys, red beans and rice, boudin balls, gumbo, etouffe, jambalaya, crawfish, shrimp, blue crabs, and oysters on the half-shell around. The accordion’s sing out of the speakers as Cajun music is played. The tables inside are linked together, so you get a community feel, and often find yourself talking to complete strangers. Unless your related to the Scrooge, your tongue should dance to the flavors of Ragin Cajun. For more information visit http://www.ragin-cajun.com/
