    I'm at a loss today. None of my normal spots are sounding good, so I don't know where to go. Someone give me a spot close to the Galleria with a specific dish that will make me want to go back after having it today. I leave in 30 and have 90, so let's get those recommendations in! :)

    Ziggy, please save the Katy jokes. I'm in a good mood today and don't want to feel sorry for you.

    I'm kind of in the same boat. Work in the Galleria, and getting tired of the same old spots. Be sure you go to the food trucks on Post Oak between San Felipe and Westheimer on the 2nd Tuesday of each month. REEKO introduced us to Kenny & Ziggy's on Post Oak, that's definitely worth a trip. Few others....

    Harvest Grill on Fountainview & San Felipe
    Freebirds (old reliable)
    Diablo Loco

    I have a couple friends who work at BBVA and we keep missing the 2nd Tuesday thing. Like this week, for example. Diablo Loco isn't open for lunch, I don't think. What do you recommend at Harvest Grill?

    I keep it on my calendar at work, get a reminder the day before.

    California Pizza Kitchen and Burger Palace are good too.

    They have food their cooked daily cafeteria style that's self serve. The entrees/sides they put there are changed daily I believe so it's hit or miss on what you may like.

    If anything here are other choices,
    Local foods = sandwiches(healthier choice)
    Fat Bao = Asian steam bun filled with meat. They have many choices and can't go wrong with their Fat Bao fries with pork belly.
