We have been on a super unhealthy food kick, and so, it wasn’t surprising that a mid-day burger craving hit us. We usually drive down to Luke when a burger craving strikes, but it seemed so far away at the time. Chester’s was on the way home and so it became our burger destination. Burgers are a point of contention between me and J (he likes Chris Madrid’s and I hate it), but we both agree — Chester’s burgers are delish. Continue reading

I have been missing authentic Indian food since we moved here. None of the restaurants we’ve visited (Bombay Hall, India Palace, Mela) have hit the spot. After months of asking around, I’ve heard Mustafa come up over and over again. So, we took the opportunity to stop by for dinner. On the second floor of a building at Medical and and Fairhaven, Mustafa is a hidden gem. Without the word of mouth recommendations, we would have never heard about it. Sooo glad we did!
For those of you that have been following the blog, you know that I have struggled to find a good Mexican place in San Antonio.

A co-worker and friend of mine, I call him JP, has exquisite taste in wines and knows all the best places to dine. His birthday was this past Friday and he had the opportunity to partake in the chef’s dinner at Bliss, Mark Bliss’ new restaurant in the trendy Southtown part of town. I haven’t had a chance to go to Bliss yet, but after reading JP’s review, we will definitely be making a reservation soon. JP knows everything about wine and since I know nothing about wine (other than I like it a lot), I thought his guest review would be a perfect addition to our list of reviews! Please enjoy JP’s review! Continue reading
When we lived on Vance Jackson, we’d often pass a little shopping center on the corner of Huebner and Vance Jackson. For months, we’d see this little sign stuck near the intersection beckoning us to visit the Kolache Stop. And, one Saturday we did. Now it’s our regular weekend breakfast spot. Saturday morning is not complete without a bag of warm kolaches and a subsequent stop at the nearby Starbucks. Yum! Continue reading
