Big Lou’s Pizza – San Antonio, TX

The Cove – San Antonio, TX

The food at the Cove isn't anything to rave about. It's good, they have sustainable, organic and local foods and hey, it's locally owned. But, I think people tend to hype this place up a bit because The Cove has been featured on the Food Network. The food is good, but it doesn't wow. [...]

Hills and Dales Ice House – San Antonio, TX

A friend of mine dragged me to Hills and Dales one night based on the fact that we could bring our own beer mug (up to twenty something ounces) and the draft beer would be the same price as the beer they serve in plastic cups. Cool concept.[...]

The Lion and Rose Pub and Restaurant – San Antonio, TX

I ordered some random English fare that was a pastry stuffed with shredded pork. It was really good. But the surprise here wasn't the fact that this dinner pastry was good.[...]

San Antonio Missions

A friend of mine warned, "Watch out for the foul balls. People get hit by them all the time!" I went to a Missions game, this past Sunday, expecting to get hit by a ball and not knowing what else to expect.[...]

Houston Street Fair & Market – San Antonio (Closed)

I wasn't sure what to expect at The Houston Street Fair & Market. The Fair takes place on the last Saturday of every month. I kept hearing about it, but kept forgetting until I'd read about it in the Sunday paper.[...]

Blue Star Brewing Co – San Antonio, TX

I like the microbrewery/restaurant concept and Blue Star Brewing Co brings a sample of this to San Antonio. There doesn't seem to be many microbreweries around here and it's nice to have this option.[...]

MK Davis Restaurant and Bar – San Antonio, TX

MK Davis is a great restaurant to go unwind at after work. It's near the downtown area and gets packed during lunch and dinner hours, so do expect that.[...]

Leapin’ Lizard Pub – San Antonio, TX

Smoky, but it's like having a neighborhood bar downtown. It's just like any other local bar. It seems more locals and downtown service employees visit this place, after hours, than tourists. They have a decent selection of draught beer, but it's nothing spectacular.[...]

Mount Charleston Lodge – Las Vegas, NV

I don't know about Mount Charleston's lodging, but their restaurant was fairly decent. The views down the mountain from here are spectacular. It was nice to get away from the strip in Vegas and enjoy some snow and weather in the mid 50's.[...]
