Powered By Rice, The Rice Box Truck

I too, am powered by rice! A. Lot. Of rice. In my mind, there are three types of Chinese food — buffet Chinese food, westernized, chain Chinese food, and authentic, traditional Chinese food. They’re all completely different from each other and my stomach craves them all separately. Then I heard about The Rice Box Truck. A food […]

Not Your Chinese Buffet’s Food: Tan Tan Restaurant

I’m not going to sit here and pretend I’m any kind of authority on culinary arts. I’m just as likely to be impressed by a greasy hamburger wrapped in foil as I am an elegantly plated filet mignon. I just like food, man, anyway it comes and anyway I can get it (except for this […]

Pho 21

The place where I discovered Vietnamese food pho the first time! I worked close to this place and a friend of mine asked if I wanted to try it. Boy am I glad I did! Everything I have tried from here is great. The most popular dish is the No. 21 and rightfully so, this […]

MHL gets Pho Cupd with Phamily Bites!

When I heard that there was a Houston food truck that was serving Vietnamese banh mi sandwiches I was naturally excited… when I found out that same food truck also served cups of Pho to go, I was ecstatic! And when I found the Phamily Bites food truck parked outside the Washington Ave hot spot, […]
