During your Houston vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
One's A Meal
This cafe is known for its late hours and home-style breakfast food. It offers a convenient bar if you are alone and want to read the paper, or you can have a business meeting at a set of tables. One thing that is great about this place is the kitchen seems to always cook eggs correctly. If you order them over medium, then you will get them over medium. Aside from breakfast, the most popular items are the Greek salad and Greek chicken soup.
Chang's China Bistro
Bistros are common in the Galleria area, but the concept of a Chinese bistro is relatively unusual. The decor is dressy and elegant, and attracts a lot of sophisticated shoppers and business diners. Most of the menu is Americanized to appeal to a broader range of diners. Try one of the many chicken creations that are designed to be rolled in crisp lettuce leaves and munched.
Woodrow's
Two-story and wood-paneled, this popular sports bar is definitely a great place to hang out with all your sports-loving friends. Televisions are spread all over the room, from big-screen TVs to the smaller versions placed close to the benches. The upstairs area with pool tables is a popular hangout for beating the summer heat. It gets a little noisy from time to time, but the regulars certainly do not seem to care. You will not miss a minute of the sports action while emptying a bucket of cold beer and chomping on delicious Cajun food.
