Always a beautiful and delicious meal at ! 🥂

We keep coming back to Bludorn, because of the balance, quality, and beauty of the dining experience. The service and the venue make for a welcoming, memorable environment, and the dishes are wonderful! I love trying the luxe seafood tower 🦪, the chicken with a crawfish puff pastry, and the trio of ice creams and sorbet - I selected the black sesame, the strawberry buttermilk, and the white peach 🍑 sorbet! So tasty! And as always, I love the wine list and sommelier team🍷!

"Dining adventures with the Houston Dinner Club! 🍽️✨

Last night, we indulged in the flavors of Hamsa during Houston Restaurant Weeks. From delicious Salatim dips to mouthwatering cauliflower couscous, and flavorful shrimp & steak skewers - every bite was a delight. The ambiance, complete with a stunning bar and patio, added to the experience. Fun times and engaging conversations with fellow club members made the evening even more memorable. A must-visit spot in Rice Village! Looking forward to more monthly dinners filled with relaxation, good food, and great company. "

🍽️ *Foodie Adventures of the Week* 🍽️

We had an incredible culinary journey this week, exploring some fantastic spots in town! 🌮🍰🥗🍣🍷 Here's a recap of my delicious experiences:

📍 Candente - Montrose 🌮
Tex-Mex heaven! 😇 The botanas platter was a flavor explosion and a perfect way to indulge in the best of Candente's offerings. 🌶️ And don't even get me started on their Paloma cocktail – it's a must-order! 🍹

📍 La Sicilia Bakery ☕🥐
A weekend treat at La Sicilia Bakery was just what I needed! ☀️ Their pastries, tarts, and bread were simply divine, and the cozy ambiance made it an excellent spot to catch up with friends over a cup of coffee. ☕

📍 Niko Nikos 🥗🍗
Opa! 🇬🇷 A Greek lunch at Niko Nikos was an absolute delight. The Greek salad with chicken shwarma was packed with flavor and left me craving for more. 🥙 Definitely a must-visit for anyone who appreciates authentic Greek cuisine. 🤤

📍 Money Cat 🍣🍹
A dinner club outing at Money Cat near Levy Park was an adventure in Japanese cuisine! 🎎 The small plates and nigiri were a burst of creativity on the palate, and the cocktails were on point. 🍸 I can't wait to go back and try more from their menu!

📍 Mutiny Wine Room 🍷
Ending the week on a sophisticated note at Mutiny Wine Room, where we attended a delightful wine dinner featuring Frip Canyon Vineyards. 🍇🍷 Their Texas wines were a true revelation, and the pairings with the dishes were spot-on. The rosé was a personal favorite! 🥂

I hope my food escapades inspire you to try some new spots! Let me know if you've been to any of these places and what your favorite dishes were. 😍 Until the next culinary adventure! 🍽️✨

Sometimes, weeknights NEED Italian food! 🍝

There are many wonderful Italian restaurants to love in Houston 🥰, but we always come back to Paulie's! It's so simple - order at the counter, try the nightly special (Friday's is cacio e pepe), grab a glass of wine at next door🍷, and a cookie from after dinner 🍪! Not drinking? Their tea and lemonade are fantastic, too!

This spot is cozy, easy to get in and out, and always delivers on flavor with their homemade pastas, pizza, sandwiches, and salads. Check them out this week!
