Did Candente's nachos right after lockdown. BBQ sauce was way too sweet. I only ate a third and threw the rest away.
Didn't order BBQ sauce nachos when I was there. I cant recommend that. Would never think to order that. Also, if you're throwing away nachos I assume you got them to-go? Cant recommend that either. Nachos should be fresh. But I cant blame anyone for ordering to-go these days. Just not... OPTIMAL for a nacho.
A handful of dishes I’ll get by myself, so I don’t have to converse while eating them Enchiladas Mexicanas at El Paraiso (2 chicken, 1 cheese) not to mention their chips and salsa Dan Dan Noodle at Duck n Boa — talk about comfort food Onion Rings at Eugene’s coupled with their Poblano Soup Cheeseburger in Paradise at Cafe Brasil, sauce on the side Antonio’s Special at Antonio’s Flying Pizza
Candente is the sister restaurant of the Pit Room next door. Like I wouldn't know. https://www.houstoniamag.com/eat-and-drink/2019/09/candente-brisket-nachos-montrose
See above. Literally threw them in the trash. Were it not for the restaurants after lockdown I would've sent them back. But it wasn't the time then, or even now.
Any Houston Restaurant thread that doesn't mention Barbecue Inn is incomplete. Family owned and operated for 4 generations since 1946. Best Fried Shrimp, awesome CFS and Fried Chicken cooked to order (so don't come in a hurry) https://thebarbecueinn.com/
It sounds gross to me. A little too much TEX in my Mex. BUT - I do see a lot of emerging plays on Texas BBQ. Khoi BBQ. Loro. Birria brisket uprising. And I do like when the cultures start to fuse. That's what Texas food is supposed to be about to me. Not that bland **** they be serving in Dallas.
Hope you enjoy. One of my favorite places and one of my required stops every time I get back to HTown.
That looks great, though I'd personally want to substitute the meat for something vegetarian. Would sliced portabellos work here? Pickled onions on nachos is a good idea. The main thing this is missing is something spicy. I like sliced jalepenos or serranos, fresh or lightly pickled.
