  1. 1. Hunan on Post Oak and Orient Express in the Galleria (both owned by the Huang family)- loved their Return of the Phoenix dish, their spin on sesame chicken, which is not duplicated anywhere. Orient Express had the best lunch specials in town and uniquely served salad as an included appetizer with this great soy/miso salad dressing they made. 2. Texas Tumbleweed - steakhouse that closed in the late 80s. Fond memories of going there as a child. Mesquite grilled steaks, great nachos and salads (ranch dressing was incredible). They had a dance floor and live band playing the Cotton Eyed Joe with a mock gun fight between guys dressed up as old school cowboys every few hours. 3. Ta Hua - closed in the 90s. Couldn’t beat their steamed vegetable dumplings and special green hot sauce and scallion pancakes. Dumpling King opened after Ta Hua closed and has the same recipe for dumplings but Ta Hua was a nicer place to go to dinner and their main courses were much better than Dumpling King. 4. Fuddruckers on Chimney Rock - great memories going there from childhood. Back in the 80s and 90s, their burgers were a cut above the competition and it was a special treat to go there since they had just 1 location in Houston before their original owners sold out and over expanded. The building it was in and patio was very nice. 5. The old Texadelphia on Westheimer (not the Dunvale location) - it opened around the time I was at UT in the late 90s and was so excited to have a location in Houston to visit when back home. Food was a as good as the original on the Drag. 6. Lalo’s Pizza - another old school place that closed a long time ago in the 80s next to my childhood home in the Fondren Southwest neighborhood. It was a hole in the wall next to a Stop N Go owned by a very nice Argentinian. Remember the pictures of Maradona, Argentina national team and of the country itself plastered all over the walls. Great pizza.
  2. Nice win beating Skenes
  3. Walls goes nuts against the ump. and gets ejected during his AB. Good times.
  4. All of Walker’s ABs today have been absolute garbage. Great job Espada having him bat cleanup AGAIN which has been an unmitigated disaster all season. Bang up job managing, have a mound visit yet keep the gas can in the game. Fire this idiot tomorrow.
  5. She’s Bari Weiss’ sister and they both hate Bourdain for speaking out in favor of Palestine. That’s the real motivation behind this attack.
  6. Don’t forget the cocaine. I never do.
  7. Cam Smith is legit. Hitting the ball hard and has 2 doubles so far.
  8. I’m starting to like this team :). Your podcast partner’s hate screed, which I enjoyed reading, has helped turn things around.
  9. Like how Ellie had to encounter a 100 foot wave at Nazaré……ohh shit that was Seattle…….and yet despite being out in the middle of sea she somehow ended up on scar beach with her boat washing up ashore right next to her too. Going a full season introducing the scars without explaining who the fuck they are and why they and the WLF are locked in a blood feud is a maddening choice. Probably won’t care enough to stick around for Season 3.
  10. I’m ready for Maeve and Conrad to have their dirt naps. They deserve to die. Doing a deal with Jaime for double the cost of what Richie pays for fent makes no fucking sense. Did enjoy Kevin exacting his revenge and Harry helping Alice to bring the heat on Conrad.
  11. Scott Foster fix is in. That’s a fucking clean block
  12. Keep feeding it to Siakam in the post please.
  13. Bring it home Pacers. Want to see a Wolves-Pacers Finals.
  14. Who could foresee trading a 5 tool player in the OF and moving a declining 2B to LF could have such effect? 🙄 Brown not getting Suzuki as part of the package from the Cubs was criminally negligent.
  15. Yainer at cleanup. What a fucking joke. I hate this version of the Astros. Fuck Jim Crane.
  16. That was a fucking walk on SGA not called
  17. Chet’s rim protection is a nice part of his game
