The Setup Taste Bar & Kitchen took over the space vacated by Sterling House which is a historic building and once home to a governor. There were a few [...]

Breakfast at EggHaus

I caught a quick breakfast this morning with my foodie friends Tha Fat Girl Food Chronicles and Fashionably Late Foodie at EggHaus in the Heights.  All of us had been eyeing the cute breakfast spot, so when I received an invite to come try their new speciality croissant, we made it a date! The Drinks Mexican Hot Chocolate For coffee drinkers, EggHaus offers plain ole American black coffee, lattes, espresso and cold brew.  I am not one for coffee, so I went for the Mexican Hot Chocolate which is served with cinnamon.  Considering that it was a little [...]

The Setup After passing A'Bouzy a million times on Westheimer (near Kirby) I finally pulled in for a Sunday brunch [...]

House of Blues Gospel Brunch

Alright, I am guessing that like me, many of my followers have heard of the House of Blues Gospel Brunch which is held monthly at House of Blues locations around the country.   Also, like me many of you probably have never been partly because you are not sure what to expect.  I mean it is not MY church so will they play OUR kind of gospel music?? And what about the food? Will it be good? These are all questions I wondered after being offered two passes to the House of Blues Gospel Brunch sponsored by Cricket Wireless.  I grabbed [...]

Brunch and Football!

The calendar says it is fall, yet Houston temperatures say otherwise! Despite our fall weather challenges there are a few other signs that fall is upon us, including football!  Eventually the weather will cooperate and when it does, two of the greatest Sunday events converge to create the ultimate Sunday Funday!  Brunch and Football! So here is how I made this list.   There are plenty of brunch spots around town, but many of them do not have ample televisions to really enjoy all of the Sunday NFL games.   On the other end, many sports bars lack dedicated brunch [...]
