I like Spring Creek BBQ, but the ones in Houston don't measure up to the original in Richardson, TX.

Gabbys is decent and you get a lot for your money.

Ottos near downtown (on Memorial) is supposed to be legendary. I ate at another Otto's and was not impressed in the least.

If you want some original Mexican...go to the Original Ninfa's on Navigation (just south of Downtown). This is the original and the only one still run by the original family and is much better than the rest. I recommend their Carnita's plate (tell them to make it the "oild way") or Taco's Musico's

Ok, I am out of idea's at the moment. I will post when more things come back.

Yeah, you're officially on crack. No way you got down I-10 to the beltway in 15 minutes. The only time that would be possible is after about 9pm. If you can get from Katy to Greenspoint in 20 minutes I'll give my pay for a year. And I'll even let you cheat and use an EZTag. It took me almost 30 minutes to get from my house in Cypress to Bush today WITH an EZTag. No figure the odds of you doing it from Katy.

Yeah most of AR sucks I think NW AR should become our own State. Im not trying to bash the rest of my state. Its just that were fortunate to have Wal-mart Tyson and JB hunt. I hope this doesnt sound as bad as i think it does

Exactly Try that from 5:30am to 9pm. Not gonna happen. I was going to ask you if you stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night.
