Official Houston thread that isn't on the Texas Board

tonight I'll be at one of the following

max's win dive
hunky dory
hellen
roost
B19
cultivare


if you see me say hello at the show

 

Tell me how hunky dory is if you went. Apparently it's on Houston restaurant weeks and we might check it out. Bernadines was really good, but way overpriced.

 

Hoss Bonaventure you gonna try to go to Day for Night again this year? I think the lineup is out soon. They've been teasing an announcement recently and Songkick sent out an email that Washed Out is playing at it.

 

Not sure. Never heard of them.

 

went to cultivare.

 

Ate at Pappas Bros steakhouse tonight. Definitely the best restaurant steak I have ever had. The lobster deviled eggs were my favorite.

 

Has anyone been to Something Wicked? This is my last year in Houston and debating if I should go or not.

 

I thought it was good but overpriced. Bill was over $300 if I recall. Bernadine's next door was better imo.

That new pizza place the next block over from dallas (cane russo or something) is supposed to be great too.

 

Cane Rosso. Can confirm it is real good. Get the Honey Bastard pizza if you can deal with some spiciness

 

Visiting today-Sunday. First timer. I look forward to experiencing your fair city

 

Their deviled eggs are unearthly good.

 

if you go to a bar called kays, BUstang will be on the other side of the gloryhole

 

Shameless bump. Still thinking about going tonight.

 

Thanks ;) I know brewery visiting and the Astros game Saturday night are in the works

 

Go to Karbach or 8th Wonder. St Arnolds is the most noteworthy brewery in town, but those two are more fun

 

8th wonder is walking distance* to Minute Maid. 2 birds with 1 stone.


*gold bond not included

 

go to 8th wonder peddicab to the game

 

Coming from Columbia SC so luckily I am well acclimated to heat and humidity

 

If you like Vietnamese, Hyunh is right between the two and is fire.

BYOB though so maybe just walk out with some 8th wonder brews and profit.

Or Pappa Charlies bbq which is right there as well and is the best in town tx bbq

 

The convenience store next to Hyunh is legit. Was surprised by their alcohol selection

 

Ha, never found myself in that predicament but I'm sure it'll happen eventually.

 

8th wonder kind of sucks compared to Karbach. But it is an easy walk to MMP.

 

do this.

if you visit houston eat vietnamese

 

Karbach is the tits when the weather is nice. Could not pay me to be there in July

 

Same for 8th Wonder. Literally satan's asshole right now.

Kirby Icehouse also suffers from this problem which is why i prefer Alabama ice house. Alabama has those white privilege big trees + covered areas.

 

about three weeks ago a buddy's wife planned a birthday hh for him at kirby ice house and reserved a table outside. i loled really hard.

 

I don't even want to go out at night now. Have to go to a friend's birthday party tonight and I'm dreading it. I'm going to be a sweat soaked mess.

 

Going to kirby ice house around 3, then astros nosebleeds seats. Going to be a sweaty day.

 

Pussy

 

I despise anything over 70 degrees. I love the cold.

 

Tell me you walk down to good seats? I might walk over to Kirby Ice House today too.

 

Well that makes sense then, however unfortunate it may be. Have you considered Waziristan?

 

we might. We have a group of 20

 

Damn big group. I always check 3rd base side section 110-111 area up close to the top of the sections. Usually always empty.

 

Last night was the most crowded I've seen a July game in about 8 years, so that may be tough. Plus it's red raider night at the ballpark so that'll add another 70 or so people.

 

Ya we are winning so more people will show but I don't know what it is about the top of those sections but they are always open. I feel like some firm bought a huge chunk for clients and never use them.

 

Just saw a construction worker wearing a sweat jacket.

 

I honestly don't know how those guys do it.

 

The Black Angels just announced they will be playing at White Oak on Friday August 19th. My tickets have been purchased.

 

Yeah, I'm going to that. No Molly this time.

 

Missing them while peaking was my second biggest regret from Free Press minus getting fake evacuated before the National the next night.

 

I was on the rail. I couldn't miss them. They never disappoint. They are one of my favorites. I'll see you guys there.

 

ICYMI: ghostland will be playing at white oak on August 21st as they open up the indoor venue. It'll probably be the same set list as the last 10 years, but they usually put on a good show.

Seen them 5 times. Never disappoint.

 

Hoss Bonaventure white oak added a lot of good shows.

 

Or I just haven't been paying attention.

 

Yeah they did. Going to Black Angels on the 19th and Explosions in the Sky/Preoccupation/Ghostland on the 21st for sure.

 

How are the shows going to work on the 21st?

 

Not sure tbh. I don't know if it's $25 for inside and out or if they're seperate.

 

Explosions/Preoccupations is on the lawn for $25 and Ghostland Observatory is downstairs for $38.50.
