To go along with my FAVORITE new shooting location in Downtown Houston, I figured I would share a few of my other Houston Favorites with you in various categories.
Restaurant
Okay. You can argue that this is a bar and not a restaurant... until you have the Pretzel Bun, or the Spicy Salmon Salad, or the Chicken and Waffles, or the Breakfast Tacos, or the Aoli Sauce. Seriously, if you have never had a meal at Local Pour, you should.
Dog-Friendly Bar
If I am being totally honest, we don't take our dogs out that often. They are crazies in public. But I love taking them to Little Woodrow's in EaDo because Miley will just sit in the booth with us like a person. And Watson thinks that looking over the top of the booth to the people passing us on the street is almost as great as having his head out the window during a car-ride. Plus they bring the dogs water and treats.
Clothing Store
This boutique - particularly the River Oaks location - never seizes to amaze me. They have incredible prices, but their clothing is not cheap quality. This is my go-to store when I am needing to add something to my closet.
Artsy-Outlet
You are totally right. I am bias about The Mad Potter. BUT - I think the fact that my friends like it as much as I do means that it can stay on the list. Painting + Wine (+ beer when the husband comes) is a perfect night. Date night. Girls night. "I-need-a-gift-and-don't-know-what-to-buy-so-I-will-make-them-something" night.
Realtor
This may seem like a random add to the list, but I assure you, it isn't. We bought our house last summer, and not only did we end up in the perfect neighborhood for us, we have also been introduced into a whole new social realm from Urban Leasing happy hours, events, etc. Connect with Brittany - or one of the other ULR realtors. You may not be looking to rent or buy right now, but surely you will at some point. So make lots of new friends and try out new things in the meantime.
Shop to buy Gifts
This amazing little shop in Rice Village is so perfect. I don't know how else to describe it. It is a gift-shoppers dream. You will find things you didn't know that you always wanted to give someone. Plus the people are amazing. You will leave with a new friend, also.
That's all for now.
Cheers.
